IMPORTANT ISSUES! THESE ARE NOT SOLICITATIONS

Hi there, It’s Monday. The White House Correspondents’ Dinner was interrupted on Saturday night by a shooting incident, leading Donald Trump and his allies to expedite construction of the new proposed ballroom — the DOJ even claiming delays and remaining lawsuits over the ballroom are endangering Trump’s life. Meanwhile, the Justice Department continues its lawsuit targeting the Southern Poverty Law Center, which is not just a legal dispute—it raises serious concerns about politically motivated efforts to discredit and weaken a major civil rights organization. When the Department of Justice pursues claims tied to ideological opponents, especially around donor activity and advocacy work, it demands scrutiny beyond routine legal coverage. Yet too much media reporting treats this case as a standard fraud allegation or partisan controversy rather than examining the broader context. 🖊️ Add your name to call on major news organizations to cover this lawsuit clearly and forcefully as a potential political attack—examining the motivations behind it, the implications for civil society, and what it means for organizations that challenge those in power SUBSCRIBE TO CIVIC SHOUT AND JOIN WITH OTHERS TO SPEAK OUT! The public deserves reporting that names when the legal system may be used to silence critics, not coverage that normalizes it.

GLYPHOSATE IS MARKETED AS ROUNDUP!

Moms Say: Pass the No Immunity for Glyphosate Act NOW!

TAKE ACTION

Surprise?! Wait for it… Moms across political lines agree: Glyphosate, a scientifically-proven neurotoxin for kids and people, is detrimental to our children—and it shouldn’t be sprayed on our food supply. [1]

Now here’s the twist: President Trump (and RFK Jr.) campaigned on the promise to all moms and families (including the MAHA moms who voted for them!) to limit the use of glyphosate. Instead, President Trump just issued an Executive Order to EXPAND domestic glyphosate production, not limit it. [2]

*Not. Okay. Tell your member of Congress to vote YES on the bipartisan “No Immunity for Glyphosate Act” 

You read the above right: President Trump and U.S. Secretary of Health RFK Jr. acted in the exact opposite direction than they promised moms—and the opposite of what they promised the entire nation—on the campaign trail. And, as moms, we know: Actions speak louder than words. 

The good news is, across political lines, members of Congress have come together to introduce the No Immunity for Glyphosate Act in response to Trump and RFK Jr.’s complete abandonment of the promises of their Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) agenda. This bill would:

• Prohibit the use of federal funds to implement President Trump’s Executive Order (EO). This means that federal agencies would be barred from using appropriated funds to administer or enforce the EO; and,
• Ensure that glyphosate manufacturers are not immune from civil liability. Manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers of glyphosate cannot claim immunity under the Defense Production Act, federal contractor defenses, or other federal authorities, and would preserve the right of injured individuals to pursue claims under federal and state law. [3]

*Tell your member of Congress to take action to protect our kids: Vote YES on the bipartisan “No Immunity for Glyphosate Act” 

Glyphosate, a commonly used herbicide and drying agent, is no good. In fact one NIH published scientific study found: “Exposure to glyphosate during the early stages of life can severely affect normal cell development by deregulating some of the signaling pathways involved in this process, leading to alterations in differentiation, neuronal growth, migration, and myelination. Glyphosate also seems to exert a significant toxic effect on neurotransmission, with the glutamatergic system being one of the most affected systems.” [4]

In addition to research showing it’s a neurotoxin, the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer classifies glyphosate as a probable carcinogen for humans. Mounting scientific evidence is showing the link between glyphosate and multiple forms of cancer, as well as health impacts for young children.[5] With these red flags threatening the health of our children and families, the time to act is now, not enable the continued use of this toxin.

Tying this hazardous chemical to national security in order to ramp up production while opening the door to liability shields for chemical companies is dangerous to our children and our communities. This Executive Order has nothing to do with protecting families or feeding the country—it’s about protecting corporate profits and insulating polluters from accountability. This bill would put immediate protections in place against the unchecked use of glyphosate and prioritize families over profits. 

→ BIG QUESTION FOR YOU: Do you know a Mom or two worried about these toxics on the food our kids and families eat? Looking for a way to reach out to them? MAHA or not, this is something all parents care about. Now is our chance to build bridges and expand a movement! Share this action link with them so they can fight for one of their priority policy areas with us too!

Congress was elected to do the work of the people—and moms and families care most about the health, safety, and thriving future for all of our children. Big business has enough corporate lobbyists, they don’t need Congress doing their bidding. Glyphosate has no place near our food and water supply. The bottom line: If Congress is serious about Making America Healthy Again, our government shouldn't be promoting glyphosate and providing liability immunity for the mega corporations making it.

*Ask all your friends—including the MAHA Moms in your life—to join us in telling Congress: Vote YES on the bipartisan “No Immunity for Glyphosate Act” 

Feel free to forward this email, share the action link on social media, text the action link to friends, and engage all moms against toxins and help us win together.
