Fight Back Against Chemical Corporations that Poison our Planet and our Democracy

You’ve heard about Citizens United, the Supreme Court’s ruling that gave chemical corporations that poison our planet an unprecedented opportunity to poison our democracy with special interest dollars.

Big chemical polluters have spent big in politics for decades. Now they can pour huge sums of money to undermine environmental safeguards. Meanwhile, we all pay the price through exposure to products made with hazardous chemicals:

• Only a small percentage of the chemicals on the market have been tested for their effects on human health and the environment.
• Scientific evidence continues to link chemical exposure to increasing numbers of health problems including certain types of cancer, infertility, learning disabilities, neurological diseases, obesity, and more.
• Chemicals in products such as cleaners, paints, adhesives, cosmetics, or air fresheners can trigger asthma attacks in children.

It’s time for Congress to put the health and safety of people before the special interests of chemical companies.

We can’t allow these companies to elect politicians who will fight against more safeguards to protect the public from dangerous chemicals. Sign this petition and show Congress that you want to stop toxic money from controlling our elections!
