We, the US Citizens of Vieques, are extremely sick with Cancer, Diabetes, Cirrhosis, & Hypertension caused by the military's environmental contamination since WWII. Thousands have died & will die from the heavy metals, agent orange, napalm, & other toxic compounds found on the Island. We have claims against the Secretary of Health for the negligent science & damaging conclusions reached by the ATSDR. We need a hospital, a research center to understand the effects of the toxins, & compensation to rebuild our lives. We must address the critical health issues, the environmental contamination, & the economic & property injustice suffered by the Citizens. Please instruct the Secretary of Health to settle our claims & work with us to solve this crisis & save our children.
