My hot take: if you were alive while lead was legally allowed in gasoline, you shouldn't be allowed to be in office.

Leaded gasoline is still used as aviation fuel.

Conveniently enough, aircraft are mostly in the sky where the general population isn't exposed to their exhaust, and most people don't own an airplane or handle aviation fuel

There are still people living around airfields, where the engines idle waiting for a runway, or run at full throttle furing takeoff.
