Here in Washington state, we’re lucky to have some of the strongest laws that protect families from harmful chemicals. Although we’ve still got a ways to go, our state is considered a national leader on these issues. But we need real reform at the federal level too, so all families can live in a toxic-free environment.
Your US Senators and Representative need to hear from you! Sign the petition to support the Safe Chemicals Act (S.847).

Unfortunately, now kids are left to sit and lie on toxic flame retardants for another year.
Despite overcoming heavily-funded opposition, nasty efforts by an industry front group, and even a giant snowstorm, the clock ran out on the bill. Together, we ran an amazing campaign, knocked the opposition back on their heels, and made the Washington legislature very aware of the dangers toxic Tris flame retardants present to our kids.
