Please take a minute to write a letter in opposition of HB 1226. This Bill would preempt any effort to regulate an industry that has a long history of manipulating the democratic process at the expense of the environment and community health. It would also preclude attempts to establish pesticide free buffer zones around schools protecting children from exposure to Organoposphate pesticides used heavily in GMO cultivation. Please send this e-mail to a friend. Mahalo for your Kokua.
 
OPPOSE HB 1226 
RELATING TO GENETICALLY MODIFIED PLANT ORGANISMS.
