I'm writing to protest HR 872 as not going far enough to protect animal, plant and human life, especially here in Oregon where I live, and where I experience the effects of same.

My husband has diminished kidney function, and is highly sensitive to environmental -cides. They could kill him. Such insecticides and pesticides are used lavishly around us where we live surrounded by Weyerhaeuser and BLM, and we test high for such poisons at doctor visits. Poison is poison and affects all organisms, not just the intended targets.

I hold what must seem to you a radical position: NO MORE POISONS ON MOTHER EARTH. This bill HR 872 could be the beginning of better health for the whole world.

With utter sincerity.
