Hello Reader,

I hate to talk about politics, but I feel compelled to share this with my "people".

A federal bill is currently being considered by Congress that could effectively grant legal immunity to pesticide manufacturers – even when their products cause serious harm.

Section 453 of the House Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Appropriations Bill proposes to block the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) from using its funding to approve or update pesticide warning labels if those changes contradict earlier agency assessments – even if new scientific evidence shows serious risks like cancer or reproductive harm. For example, if a new study finds that pesticide X causes brain tumors, but was previously deemed safe by the EPA, then the agency would be barred from requiring a new warning label. Manufacturers could then argue that federal law prevents them from changing the label - which they can use as legal grounds to dismiss injury lawsuits.

This is deeply concerning.

If passed, this bill would:

• Shield companies from accountability,
• Deny the public of informed consent, and
• Compromise public safety.

This is reminiscent of the legal protections already granted to vaccine manufacturers under the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act. This law created a separate injury compensation system and limits legal liability when harm occurs. While the context is different, both policies limit access to traditional legal recourse… I find this appalling!

Section 453 is expected to go to the House floor for further debate and voting later this year, so it’s not too late to act!

Speak up against it and protect your right to informed consent and justice.

Recently, a similar state-level bill - the so-called, “Cancer Gag Act” – was introduced in many states and successfully defeated thanks to grassroots opposition. So, your voice does matter!

Here are ways you can help:

1. Use this advocacy tool to send a letter directly to your state lawmakers: https://toxinfreeusa.org/take-action/stop-the-monsanto-protection-act/​

2. Call or email your congressional representatives

• Reach out to your House Representative and ask them to remove section 453 from the FY2026 Interior Appropriations Bill.

This is a script you can use:

“Hi, my name is [Your Name], and I’m a constituent from [City/State]. I’m calling/writing to ask you to oppose Section 453 of the House Interior Appropriations Bill. This provision would block the EPA from updating pesticide warning labels and effectively shield chemical manufacturers from lawsuits - even when their products cause harm. Please protect public health, transparency, and the right to legal recourse. Thank you.”

3. Spread the word

• Share this message on social media,
• Make posts explaining the issue and tag your elected officials
• Forward this newsletter to your contacts

Let’s not allow “Big-Ag” to win and do what we can to protect the health of our families as best we can.

Sending you love & light,

Recommendations

• Emotional Freedom Technique (aka Tapping) - I’ve been using this holistic approach to help relieve stress and promote sleep. It’s a simple & unique combination of psychology and acupressure stimulation that can be done in just a few minutes. I like to use “The Tapping Solution” app on my smartphone, but there are also lots of videos online to help guide you through it.
• Collagen for Aging Skin - My preferred collagen supplement is this one by Besha, which contains Verisol. This specific formulation of collagen peptides has been studied to show benefit for skin, hair and nails, particularly in middle-aged women. I mix it into my morning drink and it dissolves completely without taste. This is my Canadian alternative:CanPrev Collagen Beauty Powder​
