Petition - Pesticide Action Network
February 7, 2014 Gina McCarthy, Administrator Environmental Protection Agency 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW. Washington, DC 20460–0001 Dear Administrator McCarthy, We are very pleased that EPA will soon request public comment on long-awaited revisions to the Worker Protection Standard(WPS). Collectively, and as organizations that work closely with farmworkers and on farmworker health and safety issues, we hope to see a revised WPS that is as strong and protective of farmworkers and their families as possible. We look forward to the pending public comment period, as do the 18,255 supporters from across the country who have signed the attached petition encouraging EPA to ‘do the right thing’ for our nation’s nearly two million farmworkers. We will continue to mobilize farmworkers and their families, growers, clinicians, researchers and policy makers, to engage them in the important process of public comment. We want to ensure that EPA hears from the communities directly impacted by Worker Protection Standard as well as those who can offer their expertise and guidance in support of better protections for U.S. farmworkers. Thank you for your time and attention, and we hope that we can count on your administration’s support for strong protections for our nation’s farmworkers. Sincerely, Anne Katten Andrea Delgado Jeannie Economos Virginia Ruiz Amy Liebman Margaret Reeves Fawn Pattison Erik Nicholson California Rural Legal Assistance Foundation EarthJustice Farmworker Association of Florida Farmworker Justice Migrant Clinicians Network Pesticide Action Network Toxics Free North Carolina United Farm Workers And all members of the Safer Farmworkers, Food and Families Campaign (http://protectfarmworkers.org/about/) Citizen Petition Dear Administrator McCarthy, More than 13 years of delay is just too long. The Worker Protection Standards designed to protect farmworkers from dangerous pesticides have languished in “internal review” since 2000, while farmworkers and their families continue to experience harm. We urge you to fix these broken rules, strengthening them in ways that are truly protective, including providing farmworkers with the following: 1. More complete and regular training on health risks of pesticides; safety measures they can take to protect themselves and their families; their employers’ responsibilities to ensure their safety; and their rights as workers. These trainings must be offered more often than the current requirement of every 5 years. 2. Timely information (in an accessible format), about the timing, location and hazards of specific pesticides used on the farm where they work. 3. Special protections for pesticide handlers. 4. Improved enforcement of safety standards at the state level. We hope the revised Worker Protection Standards are significantly stronger and more effectively protect farmworkers and their families.

I t is high time to acknowledge the contributions of farm workers to the well-‐being of our entire society! And the farm workers do their work so very well! Protect them and their families from random pesticide poisoning and poor working conditions. Thank them for their good works! WA This is truly careless insanity. Please do something now! Tell the EPA that you support stronger pesticide protections for farm workers!!! Those who harvest our crops deserve to be protected from hazardous substances. Workers and their families should never be at risk of pesticide contamination. Using non toxic natural solutions should ALWAYS be tried first. And the environment should be protected as well. If farm worker's require more safety what about the citizens and animals who are eating the food? Protect our farm workers' health and safety, while they work to provide our food and their family wages. WA Oregon Farm Worker Ministry stands with United Farm Workers (UFW) for safe working conditions. 1 of 362 Workers Protections Standards Petition Richard Cristy Amy Mary James Sharma Laurel Dee Judith Gloria Edh Mackin Murray Cook Able Kirks Gaponoff Heath Randolph Poxon Klimczak Stanley 97202-‐1502 97045-‐8705 96721-‐5889 96056-‐7633 95973-‐1076 95949-‐9747 95926-‐7134 95926-‐5132 95864-‐3717 95843-‐4418 95823-‐1457 Violeta Dan Lynn Paul Jack Eric Lucretia Jason Dennis Lynda Lynda Ronald Sandy Duarte Bacher Sawyer Jorjorian McClain Duggan Jevne Fish Ledden Phoenix Phoenix Peterson Rodgers 95821-‐5700 95821-‐3713 95821-‐2454 95818-‐3901 95812-‐2874 95691-‐5987 95688-‐3811 95648-‐1559 95629-‐9604 95628-‐7311 95628-‐7311 95608-‐3340 95608-‐0164 America Dale Stephen Martinez Freeman Jessen 95605It is human 95603-‐8492 95560-‐2371 Ron Barbara Tim Peterson Whitener Miller 95543-‐0142 95501-‐1806 95476-‐1894 Steven Liz Janet Peggy Linda sandra Clayton anne Peter Paul & Kathleen Tracy Andrew Leslie Cynthia J Simon Alice Toni rich and maya Robert Izabela Roberta Kathryn Pesticide Action Network Stratton Helenchild Olson Kingman Erhardt maciel Barbeau, M.A., MFT behroozi Moen Lanctot Ferdinand Vahldieck Andrews Adams Cornette Kelly Wolfson,RN caudill Groff Bogus?awska Wombacher Hardy 95472-‐4525 95460-‐1276 95442-‐8802 95370-‐9404 95338-‐1563 95336-‐5820 95125-‐3464 95125-‐3327 95116-‐3376 95066-‐3946 95060t 95060-‐6330Do 95060-‐5003 95060-‐1552 95051-‐1412 95018-‐9409 95018-‐8911 95008-‐5139 95008-‐1719 95-‐100 94960-‐1057 94952-‐8850 2/7/14 Not only protection for the workers also for the products we consume. It is a HUMAN right to be informed of any exposure to possibly harmful chemicals AND to be given the means to be protected from their harmful effects... Stop poisoning hard working humans, some good bugs & our crops! I worked for a company for 15 years during that time I sprayed herbicide every day, to protect myself I wore coveralls, rubber boots, rubber gloves, a hardhat with face shield and a respirator. that was a requirement. I can't imagine what farm workers have to do to protect themselves. These workers absolutely deserve to be protected from there very dangerous chemicals! We shoul not even be using them in the first place! Dip not put the workers at risk any longer a, Because it is the right thing to do. 2 of 362 Workers Protections Standards Petition Martin Russell 94941-‐2103 cassandra Rick Tesla Verle G Michael Julie Mark Michael DIANA Scott nic fazio Luttmann Shannon Craven Eichenholtz Keitges Edgren Nadolny Bohn Sinclair wellington 94931-‐1121 94928-‐1716 94920-‐2255 94806-‐4243 94804-‐5125 94709-‐1933 94708-‐1410 94708-‐1042 94707-‐1726 94707-‐1329 94707-‐1221 Andrew Paul Gutierrez 94707-‐1035 Theodora B Sydney Asano Hope Rashid PETRUS Michael Marijeanne Joan Pat Michael Rita James Armando B Georgia Chris Ray Lois Dave John Alfred Alfred Jose Ricardo John lori Joel Jose Ricardo Robert Jean Crawford Vilen Fertig Boije Patch TOWNSEND Denton Sarraille Moricca Blackwell-‐Marchant Brewer Hays Berkheimer Aspiras Banford Antonopoulos Schwandt Jackson Pryor Chelsea-‐Seifert Holtzclaw Cross Cross Bondoc Holmes rillera Meza Rivero Hall Mont-‐Eton 94703-‐1304 94702-‐1740. 94702-‐1427 94611-‐1722 94602-‐2765 94580-‐2532 94578-‐3806 94565-‐5135 94564-‐1216 94552-‐1708 94550-‐3513 94547-‐2082 94538-‐3351 94536-‐7247 94530-‐0974 94523-‐4027 94517-‐1554 94510-‐1300 94501-‐1681 94404-‐1851 94133-‐4255 94132-‐2126 94132-‐2126 94132-‐1701 94131-‐1830 94122-‐1859 94121-‐2520 94118-‐3928 94117-‐1149 94116-‐2068 Herschel Lewis Jamie Duane Mitchell Tony Kermit Jon Suzan Joanne John R Jim Emily Brenda SUDARSHAN [PROF.] Pesticide Action Network Dosier Ellingham miles Carbon Diamond Mrsich Cuff Silver Syrett Kelly Donaldson Grant Brandt Mouw KAPOOR 94115-‐4749 94114-‐2653 94112-‐4325 94087-‐5462 94086-‐6324 94061-‐2039 94041-‐1160 94028-‐7828 94025-‐2524 93942-‐1629 93727-‐7160 93722-‐6834 93722-‐5525 93722-‐4821 93720-‐3210 2/7/14 We owe them so much, the least we can do is protect their health. 13 years is too long!

YOU ARE KILLING THE CUSTOMER AND THE POOR PERSON WHO IS PICKING THIS FOOD!! I have seen farm workers spraying strawberries. They were wearing hazmat suits. Horrible!

Will someone finally stand up to them and do the right thing and get these reforms passed?

It is ESSENTIAL that the EPA consider 1) long-‐time sub-‐lethal doses of toxic compounds, and 2) interactions (which can boost toxicity astronomically) between various fungicides, insecticides and herbicides. The EPA has A LOT to answer for: toxic compounds are available to everyone to spray, sprinkle and dust around their yards and farms without any regard for safety, cumulative action and sub-‐lethal effect on people and animals and beneficial insects. Warnings of persistence in the environment are almost non-‐ existent, information about interaction is also non-‐ existent. As insects and weeds develop immunity to our products, new stronger formulas are rushed to the market without testing or analysis of effects. 23 of 362 Workers Protections Standards Petition Elinor Graham 98118 Steven Lorraine D.

When farming practices move to organics, there are fewer pesticides to harm farmworkers and consumers. Every person needs to know what can hurt their health. Please complete the review and train the workers so that they can protect themselves and their families. It's not right to protect these workers. Since there are so many risks we should not be using these poisons at all, but until we wake up and wise up we should at least protect those we ask to handle them. Farm workers feed us. Without them, we would be hard-‐pressed to get food to our tables and yet they are treated as if they are expendable. Give them protection, make laws and enforce them so that they are not exposed to these ghastly chemicals. They do work that few white Americans would do.

Nan Paul Gloria Jim Guy Carol Gregg Pesticide Action Network It's really sad that in all of the years we have known about the dangers of pesticides, not only are we still using them but, we are not properly warning people in harms way, we are not giving them proper protection, or frequent trainings. Please do the right thing! Please protect the public, not bend to agribusiness. PESTICIDES MUST BE REGULATED BETTER TO PROTECT HEALTH!!! As an senior citizen who is a former farm worker from a migrant family and is a retired elementary school teacher, I know first hand of the dangers of pesticides on myself and my hundereds of former students and their families. Harm to these families and children is harm to our society. It costs us all in many ways including healthcare and fatalities. Worker Protection Standards are vitally needed to effectively protect us all. What would we do without them?

All industries deserve common sense, language-‐appropriate protection from workplace hazards. Working the farm fields to feed our nation and its neighbors should not be the most dangerous job in America. It's unconscionable that farmworkers do not have adequate protection from pesticides. This is an urgent situation that I hope you will move up in your priority list. Farm workers have been waiting for safety-‐ protections, including crucial protection from pesticides, for too long. It's time to ramp up those safety rules, and ENFORCE them. They harvest all the bounty that greets us in our stores, yet they are not given the respect of protection from pesticides, and decent working-‐conditions. That is not acceptable! CA CA CA CA CA CA CA Protect farm works for dangerous and toxic pesticides. Ban pesticides altogether!!! However, if we are going to still allow the use of pesticides, farm workers MUST be protected from the hazards of working with pesticides! Protect farm workers and protect our food.

Safety is more important than the chemical companies profits. People today are still suffering from the harmful affects of pesticides like DDT that stays in the body and in the environment for decades. This EPA needs to shut down the pesticide industry in favor of seeds and techniques that eliminate pesticide use altogether. Unfortunately, too much money from big corporations rule EPA and many government agencies charged with public and environmental protection. Is this the EPA willing to step up to the plate or continue on with BAU. Move more! Eat less! Eat organic! Fowl IS foul! Pork is for porkers! Milk is for babies! Beer is good food! If it isn't organic, the poisons & suicide are included in the price! ~ mikewondoctrine ~ It's about time something is done to protect workers who are putting food on our tables!

Organic farming methods are a safer and healthier alternative for all. Why aren't these places shut down? Just another millionaire making money hand over fist, but his help can be poisoned to death. Knowingly exposing workers to pesticides that can damage a person's health is cruel. Everyone needs to have access to information about the effects of pesticides.

We have grown grave risks from over-‐ subsidizing creation of poisons: drugs, pesticides, GMO's, New unconventional oils like fracking and new ways to pipe fuels through our lands that cannot be stopped without the insistent work of the EPA. We thank an active EPA safeguarding the people's health and their enabling the funding of new green technologies and green chemistry. The EPA should continue in this trend, including the implementation of biomimicry solutions that use benign nature's no-‐waste design to solve the problems too long solved with toxic chemicals and toxic procedures including factory farms and their unconscionable treatment of animals. People, food, animals and toxins do not combine well. We need to keep our health actively supervised, and the EPA is warming up to their charge.

NOW! IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL IL I am currently writing a book on the subject of pesticide exposures and childhood cancers, autism, ADHD, IQ deficits, birth defects, and other maladies; the research very clearly shows that children of farmworkers fare far worse than the average public in those categories, even though virtually every person in the United States tests positive for these chemicals, sometimes at high levels. It is a violation of human rights to pollute people, particularly innocent children, in a way that makes them ill. Cesar Chavez asked for protections nearly thirty years ago: http://www.ufw.org/_page.php?menu=research&in c=history/10.html But still, people are poisoned, become ill, and die. My own daughter died of leukemia we have every reason to believe was caused by pesticide exposure: she only lived eight years. These people *cannot* afford to wait for protection. Not doing so is tantamount to manslaughter.

It is ridiculous for them to sue farmers when genetic drift happens because of their mutated GMO crops. They need to be stopped, and have their heads examined. They want to think they are exceptional, but what they are is exceptionally aggressive and greedy, which means they are exceptionally frightened of anything or anyone they can't control. The two enemies of freedom are people who want to control everyone and everything around them, and the people who don't believe they have to control themselves at all.

So many problems could be prevented by up to date information and sensible regulations. I was a nurse for the migrant farm workers in Wisconsin. I saw first hand the birth defects caused by the pesticides in the fields they worked. I saw the premature births. I had to teach the workers to change their clothes before they could pick up their babies when coming out of the fields. I saw the sick children at day care on Monday mornings after they had been in the fields on the weekends. Information was 10 years behind times then.

It makes me feel guilty when I buy produce. Stop allowing all use of any suspected cancer causing chemicals at the same time and protect all of us from the toxic exposure. I have observed the tomato pickers returning from the fields with dried residue up their arms and pictures of the trauma to the skin from the pesticides. I have observed the toxic materials used in the strawberry fields in Florida. It is a risk to live in the nearby farm worker camps, let alone working in the fields. Since most farm workers return to their home countries in older age, I have been unable to find information about chronic diseases later in life. I have witnessed farm workers with the stain of pesticides up their arms and pictures of the skin irritations. I have watched fully clothed farm workers go out to the fields on warm/hot days and wonder how they ever tolerate the heat. I wonder how the herbicides, in addition to the pesticides, are affecting the health of the farm workers. Farm workers are most directly injured by dangerous pesticides. However, those toxic chemicals also harm people who eat the foods that are drenched in pesticides, and the people who live near farm fields where pesticides and herbicides are sprayed. MI MI MI If so much time and money was invested to pass OSHA, why is the American farm worker not protected? MI MI MI MI MI MI These chemicals are very damaging to people. Handling the foods with them is bad and so is eating the chemicals bad. How about ridding us of deadly chemicals. There are alternatives. These things are literally killing us. If they kill bugs, it is logical that they will kill us. I've been ill for 4 years from them.

I fully support and advocate the measures enumerated in this petition. As an aspiring physician and public health researcher who has seen first-‐ hand the damage that pesticide can do to migrant farmworkers in North Carolina, I know it is critical that the use of these pesticides-‐-‐ particularly organophosphates-‐-‐must be more tightly regulated. Many of the farmworkers with whom I worked were not told what they were contaminated with and did not even have access to the pesticide label. Adequate protection, updated training, accessible information, and regular enforcement are necessities-‐-‐ not privileges-‐-‐ which should be readily available to every farmworker. I urge the EPA to revise and refine its policies in regards to pesticide use and exposure. The United States is proud of its dedication environmental justice. Let's continue to be a beacon by further refining our pesticide protection for the sake of the individuals who make both our agrarian economy and our home-‐grown produce strong-‐-‐ the farmworkers and their families.

The Worker Protection Standards designed to protect farmworkers from dangerous pesticides have languished in “internal review” since 2000, while farmworkers and their families continue to experience harm. We urge you to fix these broken rules, strengthening them in ways that are truly protective, including providing farmworkers with the following: 1 -‐ More complete and regular training on health risks of pesticides; safety measures they can take to protect themselves and their families; their employers’ responsibilities to ensure their safety; and their rights as workers. These trainings must be offered more often than the current requirement of every 5 years. 2 -‐ Timely information (in an accessible format), about the timing, location and hazards of specific pesticides used on the farm where they work. 3 -‐ Special protections for pesticide handlers. 4 -‐ Improved enforcement of safety standards at the state level. We hope the revised Worker Protection Standards are significantly stronger and more effectively protect farmworkers and their families. People are more important than profits-‐ -‐ EPA you must protect the farm workers and enact the standards now While I would like to see all pesticides banned and replaced with permaculture practices, this is a good baby step.

Please help protect these workers. stop all pesticides and herbicides period With the new push to use 2,4,D to control GMO treated corn and soya beans farmers using this very toxic chemical will be suffering multiple, serious health effects. To deny them protection is unconscionable and deadly. When a pesticide has been found to poison farm workers or to leave toxic residue on produce, it should be banned. Period. It should not be allowed on imported foods, as well. That we have no protections for these hard working people is morally wrong. And the bigger issue is why has the FDA allowed these chemicals, these pesticides and insecticides to be used in such an egregious way? Research is showing how these deadly toxins are harming humans and harming bees and the insects which are crucial in the growth of our crops. Time to revise the Worker Protection Standards indeed but protect them more by banning the use of these deadly chemicals.

The need for chemicals has largely been manufactured by those who wish to make profits by selling these agents of death and disease. Blights and pest plagues of the past were in response to poor farming practices, like monocropping and the wrong kinds of tillage and irrigation. What is really needed is better education in organic farming styles -‐ of which there are many -‐ as well as proper handling and usage instruction if a particularly stupid farmer decides they actually MUST use chemicals. (Which education, properly conducted, may actually cause them to decide to go organic. But either way at least they might learn to place themselves, their workers, their end consumers and their communities at somewhat less risk) And if this stupid farmer does decide, after proper education in better farming practices, to take the easy and lazy way out and use these toxic and dangerous substances, we need strong laws limiting and guiding that usage.

By distracting our bodies from doing their jobs, which is to remain well, pesticides are monkey wrenches. Let's find a better way to eliminate pests. I visited a Del Monte banana plantation in Costa Rica earlier this month. It was Sunday, March 10th, and as our tour group walked between the rows of banana plants, an aerial crop spraying plane buzzed around us overhead. I could smell the pesticide as it drifted down upon us. At least Del Monte was spraying when the field workers had the day off. Farmers and their families are important to all of us. Let's safeguard them from pesticides and other toxic agricultural chemicals. Pesticides not only endanger the farmer workers, but also pollinators. Please stop the pesticides.

Improving safety standards today will pay dividends far into the future of those who labor to put food on our tables. Thank you. EAT HEALTHY , DON'TR POISON OUR KIDS . This is a world-‐wide problem. There are also ramifications with respect to exports. For example, Genetically Modified crops use high amounts of pesticides, and some countries wish to exclude foods containing high levels of agricultural chemicals and GMOs because of the health issues that are now associated with them. Looking after the health of farm workers is essential, as there are so many health problems now shown to be linked to pesticides. Please support the revised Worker Protection Standards. Thank you.

It is not only time merely to get this under control, but to undo the harm that has already been done. We need to protect farm workers from the hazardous effects of pesticides so they can live a long disease-‐free life with their familes.

What's the holdup. Protect Farmworkers. Sincerely, Simon MA Act now! god is watching! All people are equal and should be treated as such ALL workers deserve FULL protection in and around the workplace. It is as SIMPLE AS THAT! And we know that these protections also protect children and families in the vicinity of the fields. The time to do this is long overdue. And while we're at it, we should protect farm workers anywhere in the world by banning the export of pesticides banned in the U.S. That the "circle of poison' continues is a disgrace. Liza Brigitte Pesticide Action Network Grandia And, frankly, stupid, since we are eating dangerous pesticides residues. Barajas As a college student I have researched the effects of pesticides and have found that they cause spontaneous miscarriages, psychiatric problems (Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, autism, and a vast amount of other problems. We are human beings and deserve to be treated like human beings. We are not fictional nor invinsible. We have families, feel, think, breath and die just as anyone other human would but we deserve to be here with our families until god calls of home, don't you think? 2/7/14 313 of 362 Workers Protections Standards Petition Sylvia As a neighbor to farmworkers in Vermont, I am concerned about their health as they work near crops trreated with pesticides. Please revise your rules to include the conditions listed above to protect farmworkers' health. As a physician working with migrant and seasonal farmworkers and their families, I observe first hand the urgency of this appeal. Knight Nancy Ciavarri M Ross Please consider the humanitarian values to which we claim to aspire, and help both the farmers and the farmworkers find the means to attain health and fair labor practices. As you would not want to work under these conditions, so you should not force others to do so. There is no justification for this lack of safety. BAN ALL PESTICIDES!

ENVIRONMENTAL protection agency... NOT CORPORATE PROFIT protection agency! DO YOUR JOB! EPA do your job. Protect these workers. Fair is fair. Farm workers, like other workers throughout the work, have an inherent GOD-‐given right to be treated as full-‐fledged human beings, and to have their hard work appreciated by the management. Farmers and farm workers work hard to put food on people's tables. They should be protected from toxic pesticides that wreak havoc on the environment and cause illnesses! From the fields to everyone's table. Safety first. Gentlepersons: We grow our own vegetables and buy some at the organic Co-‐op "Peoples". Our brothers and sisters who work the commercial fields day in and day out need protection from toxins. When it comes to "life and liberty", there are no exceptions. Please act. Thank you! Growing, harvesting, and packing food items should absolutely not be work rife with toxins! Haven't enough been poisoned to fill the quota. I know farmworkers from Mexico here in Vermont, and urge you to include the conditions above in the revised Worker Protection Standards to help protect their health while they contribute to our economy. I agree with a ll above I am a survivor of pesticide poisoning and these issues have plagued farmworkers and their families for far too long... please act now. I am tired of being fed poison and farmworkers get the worst of it. 2/7/14 314 of 362 Workers Protections Standards Petition Ferne Jacobs jane larsen Jorge Aros Mary Markus Earl Frounfelter BILLI HANLON Gabriel De La Garza Martha Booz Sarah Hall I don't think farm workers should be exposed to any pesticides. The farm industry is inhumane, and I think the laws should be changed in any way they can be to protect these workers more. I don't want poison on my food or in the air and water..And it is wrong to expose workers to it. I have personally witnessed farmworkers weeding fields as a cropduster dusted both them and the human row marker who was protected only by a rag tied over his nose and mouth. I KNOW PERSONALLY FARM WORKERS WHO HAVE BEEN DISABLED BY PESTICIDES I live in an agricultural area. We all have to breathe what is sprayed on the plants. I should not have to request these -‐-‐ it should have been the first things done. I strongly believe in stronger pesticides to protect farm works and consumers.We are what we eat. I support this action by the United Farm Workers. Their concerns must be heard! I will never forget that a former colleague of mine lost her mother, a farm worker, to breast cancer at a young age from pesticide exposure. We must respect our workers as much as we respect ourselves, and protect them from work hazards. This is both common sense and common decency. If a Wall Street banker had to work in the conditions farm workers have, safety would be immediately fixed. Basic safety rights should be immediately implemented. This country should have and show more respect for the workers who grow our food and keep food prices low. Farm workers are the poorest of the poor with little oor no insurance, fair pay, or safety regulations Limda Judd Please pass a strong worker safety bill. Anthony Albert Louise Sigle Chloe Showalter Elaine Tyrie If you are not going to "Protect," change your name. I'm also tired of these pesticides in food. Farmers, doctors, pharmacists and any food related agencies should be fighting to protect the health of the poor or uninformed of dangerous products that can take your life or make you sick for life! Not be trying to make so much money they can never spend it or accumulate it fast enough. I'm just now learning about your organization from my social movements and change class! I wish you guys the best of luck for your cause. Insecticides in the fields adversely both affect farm workers and the envirornment directly. Indirectly we as consumers are also affected.

The final paper, also by a team at UC -‐ Davis, suggests further exploring the link between pesticide exposure and autism.†Excerpt from site shown below. http://medicalxpress.com/news/2012-‐04-‐toxic-‐ chemicals-‐autism-‐disabilities.html Jolaine Gorrilla Adam Izak-‐Sunna Tara O'Neill Jane Blue Sadie Sullivan-‐Greiner carole Helmkamp Pam Emerson Patricia Briones Diana Eiranova-‐Kyle pat leegan Marlies S Lee Mumford Susanne Hesse & Doug Dyer Jo Mueller Pesticide Action Network Genetics also play a role in brain chemical disorders. Therefore many of us are born predisposed toward mental health issues. If it is known that PCBs can exacerbate brain chemical disorders...in even the smallest manner...why are these chemicals allowed in our food supply? Why are they allowed to filter into our groundwater? Why have they been allowed to poison and kill the soil in agricultural areas as well as in ‘gated’ suburban neighborhoods. These chemical ‘killers’ have been given free reign throughout or lives. Our ‘selective’ ignorance, is capable of contributing to and causing It is really a matter of self preservation. And of plain common sense. It is time for the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) rules to be brought up to 21st century standards and it is the responsibility of the EPA to end 13 years of weak enforcement on this issue It is unconscionable that farm workers who bring our food to the table should not be protected from pesticides. I've never understood the rationale for 'exempting' farm workers and domestic workers from all the normal workplace safety requirements...if anything, they should have more protections, rather than less, as their work is inherently either more dangerous and/or more isolated. Let's be human and treat all workers fairly especially those who help produce the food we eat. make a way for consumers to find out if ttheirproduce is pesticide safe My husband and two of his brothers died of Parkinson's disease. They all worked in agriculture in California and were exposed to pesticides. I am convinced those things were at least connected and probably the pesticides were the cause of their illness. No more poisonous pesticides! Farmworkers are God's children too! Noone should get sick so someone else gets richer.... Outlaw dangerous pesticides! Protect farmers, farm workers and their families. NOW!!! Overdue. People need to count for more than profit in our country Pesticides are being used to much and poison consumers and workers.

Pesticides have been shown to damage neurodevelopment in the children of farmworkers. Please do what you can to protect these workers and their families. Pesticides kill more than "bad" insects! How would YOU, dear "decision maker" like to work with this stuff? I strongly suggest that you would gain valuable insight if you were to spend time working in the fields yourself. Pesticides were responsible for liver failure in a friend of mine who worked in the orchards of Yakima. He barely survived a liver transplant. We MUST do a better job of regulating these toxics.

Farm workers are people like the rest of us. Let us stop doing harm to them. Please help farm workers. Please protect farm workers from dangerous pesticides. Please protect the farmworkers. Protect and support the workers, always. protect farm workers. Protect us all. Protect workers!!! Protecting farm workers equates to protecting the food that they help to produce. It is a win -‐ win for all. Protecting farm workers from pesticides is the very least we should be doing for these people. They pick our crops, yet they are treated like animals with no rights and no respect. It's disgusting. We really should be moving away from the overuse of chemicals as we all would be better off. Protecting the people who work to bring America's agricultural bounty to our markets is very important to me as a consumer and an American. Stop poisoning the workers who bend to pick the food we eat! thank you for doing this! The amount of pesticides we have in our environment is detrimental to everyone. The EPA must stand up for american workers and bring these rules into the 21st century. It is unacceptable that as of 2014, this agency which was created for the purpose of protecting human health and the environment by writing and enforcing regulations based on laws passed by Congress is not fulfilling it's mandate. It is time to end 13 years of inertia and start fulfilling it's mission. The EPA rules MUST be enforced to protect not only the workers but all of us. The importance of these rules to health of workers and the urgency for them to be in place cannot be overstated. 2/7/14 317 of 362 Workers Protections Standards Petition Jamaka The men, women and youths who ensure we have food and drink to sustain us deserve fair treatment and decent wages and working conditions.

The people who put food on our plates deserve to be protected from dangerous pesticides, AS DOES THE FOOD WE EAT. The safety of any worker comes first. If a business owner cannot figure this out, they shouldn't be running a business. THE WORKERS NEED PROTECTION FROM THESE POISONS There are significant long-‐term ramifications to these measures…..good for everyone. There is NO VALID REASON why poor farm workers, including America's children working beside their parents should be a political football. Federal government protection should be a no-‐brainer or is the lobby money allowing this inhumane travesty to continue undeterred? Placido Salazar, USAF Retired Vietnam Veteran and former farm laborer These are the people who bring us the food that we eat. They deserve to be treated as we would like to be if we were doing their work. These farm workers labor like hell to do grueling work for pitifully low pay. The least we should do is make sure that they are not poisoned! These minimal protections must be put in place and enforced. The EPA must hold employers accountable for the safety of our nations farm workers -‐-‐-‐ just as we, the American public, must (and will) hold the EPA accountable for the same. Think about your health and the health of other human beings. This is criminal!! Can you taste the farmworkers' blood, sweat, tears, and grief in the produce you eat with your meals, and still celebrate at the dining table? THis is long over due. This is simply VITAL!! This is the right and just thing to do. Those making the rules should be exposed to these chemicals. To end poverty worldwide, Read, 'Ultimate Poverty, Unlimited Wealth", antigoldrush.com To even think to pesticide a field in which humans work and sweat is in my view, murderous. Stop it now. 'these must be a better way. And all of us are happier with less pesticide. We absolutely want our farmworkers protected and enhanced in every way !!!! We know pesticides aren't safe for the farm workers or for consumers. There is no safe level. It's time to stop the use of all pesticides.

Singer Jean Girard Mary John Burke de Forest Jen Velinty george marzocchi LOIS Joanne Jason Cunningham We need to switch to older methods of agriculture without pesticides and without chemical fertilizers. We only buy organic, soooo, if you want to sell to us, you have to forgo the pesticides, except in extreme pestilence infestation. We proclaim to be a wonderful country. To exemplify this, we need to take proper care of ALL of our workers, especially our farm workers. Whose side are you really on? Work towards more natural forms of pest control to protect farm workers and their families, and consumers of treated crops. Chemicals that effect the vital organs of young children who consume treated crops must be identified and phased out of use. Workers make whjat we eat and use in this life. None of the Great Corporations would be rich today if not for those who do the work! Thank you for your consideration. Workers remain well...it is a win-‐win situation for ALL! Would you expose your family to pesticides? Wow, EPA....so some among us are DISPOSABLE people? That's amazing. So -‐-‐-‐after the "All'' men are created equal..." is there an invisible part written out like .......EXCEPT farm workers and probably Hispanic ones are excluded....? Geez.....there needs to be a study here, because pesticides are bad enough....how about a control group...the kids of the growers have to sit out in the fields as the workers pick and let's see how sick those kids get? gloriana casey Steve Rick Arthur Ana Richard Sarah John Sara john Steve Jeremy Lis Wayne Chris Gretchen Kacie Candyce Todd Ryan Jessica Raymond Kohn Lee Schurr Herold Thoele Moberg Seibert Loeppert johnson Eklund Graham Harris Gibb MacKrell Primack Shelton Osterkamp Mayer Davis Sevilla Welch Pesticide Action Network Yes, that is an absurd proposal...but the reality for the farm workers is insane and inhumane, and undoubtedly a KILLER of fair treatment.

Industrial farming yields are also not jeopardized by organic methods (see Rodale Institute's 20 yrs of data), or by selective use of certain human health-‐ approved pesticides. The health impact of the use of neo-‐nicotinoid pesticides (and others) on farmworkers and their families is unconscionable. Please take action to set Worker Protection Standards. Thank you. Pesticides/Insecticides are poisoning to people and the environment. I urge you to explore natural alternatives. As more and more awareness grows on these topics, the less likely people will be to buy products grown with the use of these chemicals.

WHAT IS NEEDED IS JUSTICE, not a lot EPA CRIMINALS that are nothing more than a bunch of ROCKERFELLER and ROTHSCHILD BOOT AND BUTT LICKERS. Why are we using poisons and then spending thousands curing cancer. Stop the herbicides and pesticides that kill our farm workers who harvest our food and the bees that pollinate to make our bounty. N0R1G0 N0H 2T0 Lisa Bob Elkyn nadav Katie Brian Petra Alexander Leo NY Better safeguards results in better workers. More rights result in more motivated workers. Consider making pesticides less harmful in addition to all of this: I don't like consuming poisons at my dinner table. Would you want to feed your children poisons and chemicals as long as it taste good, right? Wrong. Do not let this, revising the Workers Protection Standards, become a difficult task. Do not let it be a pressing issue, instead take joy in knowing that you'll make many individuals thankful, greatful and appreciative. Do not let this become another job; paper work. Remember that there are people that value the time and effort that you put into making these sorts of things finalized.

I don't like eating chemicals, and certainly don't think farm workers should have to be exposed to these chemicals. People lived for hundreds of years eating fruit with the odd flaw but no chemicals, I can handle the odd bug on my fruit without the chemicals. Permitting those who work on the land to produce our food, [including those who may be brought in from impoverished less-‐developed jurisdictions], to be exposed to the KNOWN cumulative dangers of pesticides that are used on a regular basis, amounts to nothing less than pre-‐meditated criminal behaviour on the part of the government and its regulators. I URGE YOU TO REVISE YOUR STANDARDS to reflect what we now know about this cumulative danger, and to APPLY THOSE STANDARDS RIGOROUSLY in all instances. By eliminating the use of pesticides, workers maintain their health and live longer. The food they grow also promotes better health for those who eat it. It's a win-‐win situation. m4g0a2 M4G 3T4 M34 3GX m2r 3b7 M2N 3Y8 M2N 3C9 Kathy Karen Karen Michael Birgit Nadine Bozena MIKE Reena heather Pesticide Action Network ON I believe we should start thinking about the future and protect ourselves against harmful pesticides and all the damage it does.

When handling pesticides any worker should be fully protected from these harmful chemicals. Anyone considering otherwise is not fit to be making decisions regarding the workers well being then. QC QC NY Another, maybe better idea, is to promote organic farming and teach farmers, along with safer pesticide use, how to avoid using pesticides at all. Sadly, pesticides tend to kill everything and like antibiotics, eventually a resistance develops requiring stronger and stronger chemicals. It is a vicious cycle that will not stop until consumers and politicians stop the insanity.
