Dear Friend,


I hope you are preparing for a nice 4th of July holiday! Before you sign off this week, if you haven’t already done so, please take a moment to lend your voice to protect service members and others by telling Congress to require the Department of Defense to purchase safer cleaning products.


Show your support by EOD today!

As a reminder, Congressional action on the National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2025 is well underway. ASBN is excited to support a provision in the House bill (Section 804) that would require the Department of Defense (DoD) to use Safer Choice (or similarly certified) cleaning products. ASBN’s letter urges Senate leadership to include the provision in the Senate National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA).

Given the DoD's significant purchasing power this provision will create a strong market incentive for the production and sale of safer cleaning products – Good for sustainable business, and good for service members, staff and workers! This EWG article provides more background.


Ready to help steer the DoD’s purchasing power towards Safer Choice products?
