EPA MAKING ILLEGAL, SECRET AGREEMENTS WITH PESTICIDE MAKERS, THREATENING
PUBLIC HEALTH, LAWSUIT CHARGES
Private Meetings with Chemical Companies Violate Federal Laws Requiring an
Open Process
WASHINGTON (February 17, 2005) -- The Environmental Protection Agency is
illegally negotiating secret agreements with industry lobbyists over
pesticide regulation, according to a lawsuit filed today by NRDC (Natural
Resources Defense Council). The lawsuit specifically cites private
agreements between the agency and chemical companies over the regulation of
atrazine, one of the most heavily used weed-killers in the country, and
DDVP, a highly toxic insecticide. NRDC contends the agreements have
undermined public health safeguards by failing to restrict the use of these
dangerous chemicals.

Words mean nothing -- nothing to George Bush. They are just utterances. They
have no meaning. Bush can say again and again, "well, we don't do torture."
We know what happened. We know about Abu Ghraib. We know, we see
anecdotally.

Dollars in the common treasury are like fish in the common sea - anyone
who can will harvest to extinction. That is why socialism is
fundamentally corrupting and can not work. ----
Wasn't America supposed to be about voluntary agreement instead of
forced obedience?
Isn't it high time to join The Resistance?
