    Update. Yes, the #InternetArchive (@internetarchive@mastodon.archive.org) is preserving the #EPA archive. It's been doing so for more than 10 years. * the story https://freegovinfo.info/node/15090/ * the IA preservation copy https://web.archive.org/web/20260000000000*/archive.epa.gov #DefendResearch #Preservation #Takedowns #Trump #TrumpVResearch #USPol #USPolitics
