Take Action: Stop Monsanto’s Plan To Kill GMO Labeling; Tell the EPA to Approve Strong Climate Protections; Keep Dr. Califf Out of the FDA!

Stop Monsanto’s Plan To Kill GMO Labeling

UntitledJust last week, the US Senate proposed that GMO’s are safe. There was barely even a discussion of them saying anything other than that. We need to keep up the pressure on them and tell them we demand the right to know. We don’t need them to try and convince us that they are safe, we already know they aren’t, so let us make up our own minds at the supermarket. It’s getting harder and harder to fight for this right, but we can’t give up! If we don’t shut this down now, then the discussion for GMO labeling will be over, and we will lose. Vote with your dollar and choose organic, and please sign all the petitions you can.

Tell the EPA to Approve Strong Climate ProtectionsPollution_de_l'air

To say the very least, the oil and gas industry is a huge contributor to our pollution problems. Currently, the EPA is developing important new rules to slash climate-damaging methane pollution from the oil and gas industry. This is great news, but we still have to keep the EPA on track and tell them we want them to crack down on Big Oil. We need strict rules and regulations for fracking to reduce pollution. Take action today to make sure the EPA finally cracks down on frackers and approves strong climate protections.

No Big Pharma Ally As FDA Chief

Datos_Pegados_ff93With so much going on lately about price hikes in prescription pills, it’s becoming clear that Americans pay the highest prices in prescription drugs in the world. Appointing Dr Califf, as the FDA Chief, will not help this dire situation. According to the New York Times, Dr. Califf “has deeper ties to the pharmaceutical industry than any F.D.A. commissioner in recent memory.” He has an extensive record of close collaboration with pharmaceutical giants, and recently described regulation as a “barrier,” not a safeguard for public health. While he donates his Big Pharma speaking and consulting fees to charity, his lucrative salary at Duke University is directly supported by companies like Merck, Novartis, and Eli Lilly. Sign the petition now.
