If you've seen a lot of my recent posts I've focused on “pesticide immunity”, but many of you working in climate, food, and ag policy may not know how this relates to your work. Check out this webinar, Kill the Cancer Gag Act Mobilization Webinar, facilitated by Pesticide Action & Agroecology Network, Food & Water Watch, and Iowa Environmental Council, and Progress Iowa, for a deep dive. Thank you Rob Faux (Communications Manager at PAN North America) for debunking myths and offering policy/legal perspective and Dr. Richard Deming (Medical Director at MERCY HOSPITAL, IOWA CITY, IOWA’s Cancer Center) for the oncologist perspective and analyzing the troubling cancer stats coming out of Iowa. Thank you Nick Schutt for speaking out as a rural Iowan against this type of bill. Also thank you to Caitlin Golle, Jennifer Breon, Michael Schmidt, and Jen Sinkler for making this happen! https://lnkd.in/eEgbAz5S #failuretowarn #pesticides #corporate #corporations #immunity

EPA is currently accepting comments on a petition that would block state and local pesticide laws and give pesticide companies immunity to litigation. Tell them NO. #CancerGagAct https://lnkd.in/enzmfsHp

Congress has the power to act and the responsibility to protect farmworkers and everyday consumers. H.R. 5554, Ban All Neurotoxic Organophosphate Pesticides (BAN OPs) From Our Food Act, was just reintroduced, and if passed, would be a huge victory for public health. Please join us — write to your representatives today to demand they support H.R. 5554. https://lnkd.in/gEiXKs4T

For too long, pesticide, biotech and petroleum corporations have dictated how we grow food, placing the health and economic burdens of pesticide use on farmers, farmworkers and rural communities. PAN works as part of a larger community of organizations and individuals to tackle the pesticide problem. You can join us in this collaboration by supporting our work. Your tax-deductible gift will carry this work into 2025 and beyond! https://lnkd.in/eVBDd9Cj
