Call Your Senators ASAP!

— filed under: Parents and Kids, Toxic-Free Kids Campaign, Activists, 2011 Legislative Session, Safer Chemicals, Children Safe Products Bill of 2011

It’s been a busy week down in Olympia. The League of Everyday Superheroes has been working hard to help our Senators find their own inner Superheroes and vote yes for kids’ health, but we’re fast approaching a crucial deadline. If the Children’s Safe Products Bill doesn’t come to a floor vote and pass the Senate floor by the evening of Monday, March 7th, it will be effectively finished for the session. We’ve passed out posters, handed out superpowers, and lobbied relentlessly to protect kids. Now we need you to contact your Senators to make sure they know you, their constituents, support the bill and they should too!

Call Your Senators ASAP!

It’s been a busy week down in Olympia.  The League of Everyday Superheroes has been working hard to help our Senators find their own inner Superheroes and vote yes for kids’ health, but we’re fast approaching a crucial deadline.  If the Children’s Safe Products Bill doesn’t come to a floor vote and pass the Senate floor by the evening of Monday, March 7th, it will be effectively finished for the session. We’ve passed out posters, handed out superpowers, and lobbied relentlessly to protect kids.  Now we need you to contact your Senators to make sure they know you, their constituents, support the bill and they should too! Call the Legislative Hotline at 1-800-562-6000.

Want an idea of what we're fighting against? Here's another one of the bad guys:

 

Formaldehyde crib

Off-gassing into our lives, Formaldehyde infiltrates our homes via furniture, building materials, and textiles, like crib sheets and clothing. This smelly bad guy is associated with cancer and asthma, leaving a powerful stench in his wake.

Again the Legislative Hotline at 1-800-562-6000.  They'll ask you for your name and your address, so they can make sure your message gets to the right legislators, and then ask what message you'd like to leave.  Tell them you want your Senator to vote yes on the Children's Safe Products Bill (SB 5231)!  Or, if you'd rather call their office directly, you can use the Legislative district finder to look up your Senator and their office extension here: http://apps.leg.wa.gov/DistrictFinder/
