Tell Congress: DO NOT Overturn Local Pesticide Laws
TAKE ACTION

***

This is urgent, friend.

Right now, corporations like Bayer’s Monsanto are leaning on Congress to add an amendment to the 2023 Farm Bill that would overturn all state and local pesticide laws.

If this amendment is allowed to pass, it would eliminate state and local laws that go further than the EPA in restricting pesticides. These laws are designed to protect populations who are most vulnerable to the effects of toxic pesticides, such as farm and agricultural workers and school children who play on fields.

What’s more, these laws also protect threatened pollinators like bees, slowing the decline of their populations and improving their health.

Click here to send a message to Congress telling them to vote NO on any amendment that overturns state and local pesticide regulations. Your voice will help us in the fight against toxic pesticides.

Pesticides like glyphosate and neonics have been linked to serious and life-threatening health conditions, such as reproductive, cardiovascular and nervous system harm, and even cancer. State and local communities have taken real steps to protect the health of their residents in regulating these chemicals, but all that great work could be reversed if this amendment passes.

Don’t allow big pesticide companies to put their profits above our health. Click here to tell Congress to vote AGAINST any amendment that overturns state and local pesticide regulations.
