House Bill 2476 Is A Direct Attack on Kansas Farmers and Families

email advocacy

Dear [Your Elected Official],

Pesticide immunity legislation, House Bill 2476, is a slap in the face to hardworking farmers in our state. This legislation isn’t a matter of labeling. This legislation is about our people’s constitutional right to hold these big chemical corporations accountable when their products poison people in our community. It's a betrayal of our values, our health, and our sovereignty. We cannot allow billion-dollar foreign corporations to dictate our laws and trample over our farmers' rights.

Think about it. Do you really want to prioritize Bayer/Monsanto and ChemChina over the well-being of farmers and farm families in our communities?

Please vote NO on the pesticide liability immunity legislation, House Bill 2476. Vote no on pesticide immunity legislation.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]

[Your City & State]

Summary

We cannot let Kansas farmers be sold out for corporate lobbyists. Big pesticide companies are pushing House Bill 2476, which would strip farmers of their rights and shield foreign chemical manufacturers from responsibility for the harm they cause. Hundreds of Kansas farmers and agricultural workers have already sued Bayer/Monsanto and ChemChina after developing cancer and Parkinson’s from their pesticides, just a tiny slice of the lawsuits these companies face worldwide. House Bill 2476 would make Kansas the first state to give these foreign chemical corporations special immunity, stripping farmers of their right to hold them accountable when they lie about risks. The bill is a gift to ChemChina, a company flagged by the Pentagon as a “Chinese Military Company,” whose paraquat pesticide is banned in China for its link to Parkinson’s, but still sold here without that warning on the label. Tell your legislators: Vote NO on House Bill 2476 and stand with Kansas farmers, not foreign chemical corporations.
