Dear Pollinator Protectors,

The Federal House of Representatives Farm Bill is moving forward for a vote next week. It contains language that threatens to preempt, and thereby nullify, all state and local pesticide restrictions as well as gut the endangered species act, cut conservation funding, and more. If this bill becomes law, our work at the State level to protect pollinators from pesticides is over. All regulation will be set at the Federal level.

Environmental organizations have developed this letter in opposition to the Federal House Farm Bill. Organizations, like your local Pollinator Pathway project, can sign-on to the letter here. The deadline is Friday, April 24.

All individuals, please call or email your Federal House Representative and ask them to VOTE 'NO' ON THE HOUSE FARM BILL.
