We the people ask the federal government to Take or explain a position on an issue or policy:

STOP federal fumigation of 3.5 American citizens in Puerto Rico with pesticide Naled as effort to combat Zika virus.

Created by V.V. on July 21, 2016

A legitimate health concern regarding Zika virus exists for many US jurisdictions including Puerto Rico. However, PR has been particularly singled out by the federal government. The CDC, EPA & some local PR govnt authorities, in an effort to ‘control the spread of the virus’, have plans to spray the pesticide Naled over large swaths of PR’s population. There is an absolute lack of transparency and credibility from decision makers. Over 80% of the people oppose harmful Naled fumigation. We demand transparency. We ask the President's intervention to stop this action against citizens of our nation. The rights of life, liberty & pursuit of happiness are not mere words, but rather a protection against unwanted govnt actions. These rights are as essential as the air we breathe. STOP NALED.
