Please join me khổng lồ champion environmental justice & public health by co-sponsoring H.R. 230, theBan Toxic Pesticides Act of 2019. Bạn đang xem: 'no smile, no trash talk': behind tim duncan's quiet
My legislation bans the use & stockpile of Chlorpyrifos, an extremely harmful pesticide that former Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt eliminated by reversing an Obama-era ban. TheNew York Timeshighlighted in a July 2nd, 2017article, “he (Pruitt) reversed a ban on the use of a pesticide that the EPA’s own scientists have said is linked khổng lồ damage of children’s nervous systems<1>”. Additionally, H.R. 230 was included in in the Food Policy action Network’s sixth annual Scorecard, which is responsible for “covering votes and proposed bills across the food system in 2017…co-sponsorships are accurately reflected in the Member’s record on Food Policy”
According lớn reports, on March 9th of 2017, Mr. Pruitt met with a pesticide manufacturer for 25 minutes lớn reconsider an Obama-era ban on the use of Chlorpyrifos & promptly reversed the ban. This is a clear example of Administrator Pruitt kowtowing khổng lồ powerful companies that trample on our collective health & exposes children to toxic materials all in the name of profits.
Many studies have linked prenatal Chlorpyrifos exposures khổng lồ autism & related disorders. For example, University of California, Davis researchers found that women in the second trimester who lived near fields treated with Chlorpyrifos had children that were 3.3 times more likely khổng lồ have autism.

<2>Additionally, in a long-term study from 1997 lớn 2004 by Columbia Center for Children’s Environmental Health – & funded by grants from EPA and the National Institutes of Health – “results showed that higher prenatal CPFFinally, EPA research indicates Chlorpyrifos, which is in the same family as Sarin gas, can lead to cholinesterase inhibition in humans with high exposures. In other words, this pesticide can overstimulate the nervous system causing nausea, dizziness, confusion, & at very high exposures (e.g., accidents or major spills), respiratory paralysis and even death. Occupational exposure to lớn Chlorpyrifos is a concern to the EPA and current Chlorpyrifos labels require workers handling and applying Chlorpyrifos lớn wear additional personal protective equipment (e.g. Chemical resistant gloves, coveralls, and respirators), & restricting entry into treated fields from twenty-four hours up lớn five days.
Our legislation, the Ban Toxic Pesticides Act of 2019,bans this harmful pesticide by cancelling current EPA registration & prohibiting any future registration of pesticides that contain Chlorpyrifos. Join me in protecting public health và ending the Trump Administration’s assault on our public health and the environment.
