#GMO #SOS #ACTION #ALERT All hands on deck for GMO Ground Zero Hawaii. We must act NOW to stop the Hawaii Monsanto Protection Act! Non-residents can help too! Companion bills introduced today show expected attempts to stop the Counties from protecting their citizens life, health, property and preservation through pesticide and genetic engineering regulation! The Constitution states the Counties SHALL protect life and health and if these agricultural practices are affecting our life, health, property and preservation, we have the right to pass bills like 2491 on Kauai for buffer zones and pesticide disclosure, 113 for GMO prohibition on Hawaii island, and the upcoming Maui bill on January 28th! The chemical industry is again using the Hawaii state legislature to attempt to usurp home rule and necessary regulations for each island condition regarding GMOs and pesticides. Abhorrent. Write and call your legislators TODAY and tell them what you think. This is absolutely unacceptable and these bills must be stopped immediately. ASAP and BE THERE on the 29th at 10:30AM at the latest for the People Not Profits rally. *Look up your legislators after you read the House and Senate versions and see if your legislator introduced it. *We suggest emailing your Senator and Representative together if they both were introducers and CCing [email protected] and [email protected] or sending a letter to your politicians and sending also letters to the entire House and Senate. Be professional and let them know you are a voter in which district and will not stand for the pre-emption of home rule and the Hawaii Monsanto Protection Acts. Look up if needed at capitol.hawaii.gov *Go down to their offices and/or talk to them or mail them letters. *Call them and make they know how important it is to stop these bills. Every single introducer and every single legislator if you can but most importantly the introducers. *Find their FB and twitter accounts and tell everyone in your area to do the same. *Share this information with everyone you know who loves Hawaii and invite them to help This is abominable. The counties have the rights to protect themselves and the state regulation is a floor, not a ceiling. Defend home rule, defend Hawaii. *Non-residents, defend Hawaii and email the reps and sens email addresses above and let them know if you will not spend money traveling to Hawaii if they do not stop these bills and allow the Counties to protect themselves [email protected], [email protected] SB2506 capitol.hawaii.gov/measure_indiv.aspx?billtype=SB&billnumber=3058&year=2014 HB3058 capitol.hawaii.gov/measure_indiv.aspx?billtype=SB&billnumber=3058&year=2014 House Introducers: ONISHI, AQUINO, AWANA, BELATTI, BROWER, CABANILLA, CACHOLA, CHOY, CULLEN, EVANS, FALE, HANOHANO, HASHEM, ICHIYAMA, ITO, KOBAYASHI, MIZUNO, MORIKAWA, NAKASHIMA, SAIKI, SAY, SOUKI, TAKAYAMA, TOKIOKA, TSUJI, WOODSON, YAMANE, YAMASHITA, Fukumoto, Johanson, Luke, Matsumoto, McDermott, Ohno, Takumi, Ward Senate Introducers: NISHIHARA, BAKER, KIDANI, SOLOMON, WAKAI, Dela Cruz, Espero, Galuteria, Hee, Slom
