Dow Chemical, the same company that brought us Dursban, Napalm and Agent Orange, is now in the food business and is pushing for an unprecedented government approval: genetically engineered (GE) versions of corn, soybeans and cotton that are designed to survive repeated dousing with 2,4-D, half of the highly toxic chemical mixture Agent Orange. Agent Orange was the chemical defoliant used by the U.S. in Vietnam, and it caused lasting environmental damage as well as many serious medical conditions in both American veterans and the Vietnamese. Tell your representative to sign onto the DeFazio-Pingree letter and help to stop the EPA and USDA’s approval of Dow Chemical’s “Agent Orange” Crops!
