While I agree that the big chemical need to be monitored, I do not believe this is the time to add more redtape. We must get this economy working again. I too voted for Obama and am still behind him. He is very pragmatic and realizes that additional regulation has its place and time.

The chemical companies don’t want to take responsibility for damages and health care and environmental clean-up costs. This would be bigger than the tobacco harms and lies, so it can’t happen!Oh, no, what would happen if they fail,like the banks?! What if people start to get healthy when the damages stop? There won’t be as much profit for the sick care industry! They run the country, so they will continue to write the laws that benefit them, not the people. If something isn’t studied, it isn’t “proven” or “real”. The Pres says everything is to be based on “best science”, so they can’t do or look at the science. Mesa County Commissioners,the CDC, CDPHE, and Mesa County Health Depts employ the same MO.

Hello Mr. President,
We NEED the EPA to review these dangerous pesticides. Can’t you find some other way to raise your campaign funds.
What has happened to “a change we can believe in”??????

PS- I will still vote for you, but I am bitterly disappointed.

Am I the only one tired of petitions and letters? All we need are people at the top we don’t have to convince to do the right thing – they just do it. Vote Green Party for real change, and stop supporting those owned by Wall St and corporations!

This lesser of the two evils excuse only condones the acceptance of the status quo, and means countless petitions and letters.
