  It is banned; they’re talking about un-banning it

    It should be mentioned that it was only banned in the US in 2024 under Biden, so obviously yet another reason why he would want to overturn the ban (on top him being paid to overturn it of course).

    Like restarting production or slowing down the decontamination?

      Restarting production. Trump has been praising asbestos for years, so the people eager to restart that production has obviously been paying him for some time.
