Remove the chemicals from our milk!

Monsanto- a huge agricultural corporation that supplies your family's milk, cheese, and a number of other things, has been adding growth hormones to the cows that produce your dairy. Not only do they harm the cows injected, but they harm us. rBGH-the growth hormone they add in milk, needs to be banned for good!
"Stress effects have been noted in cows hyper-stimulated by rBGH. These include increased susceptibility to infection, infertility, loss of fat, heat intolerance, and "burnout" or lactational failure".

If rBGH can cause so much harm to cows, imagine what it does to humans. Acually, rBGH has been linked to health problems such as breast cancer, colon cancer, and prostate cancer. Did I mention rBGH has also been linked to premature growth in infants?
The worst part? FDA approved this. Urge leaders to ban these chemicals from our milk NOW. We have a right to control what goes into our bodies!
We the undersigned urge you to remove dangerous growth chemicals such as rBGH from our dairy products. Not only are these chemicals cruel to the cows that give us milk, but it's cruel to our population. These chemicals have been linked cancer. And could even induce premature growth in infants. We believe we have a right to know and control what goes into our bodies as well as our childrens' bodies.
Thank you for your time and consideration!
