Video: Bobby Kaufmann Attempts To Defend “Cancer Gag Act” At Town Hall

Action alert from Food & Water Watch Iowa:

Rep. Kaufmann, our demand is simple: DO YOUR JOB. Protect Iowans. Not the profits of the pesticide industry.

On Saturday, Food & Water Watch attended Bobby Kaufmann’s town hall to question him about his support for Bayer’s Cancer Gag Act. This multi billion dollar corporation – and industry front groups like Modern Ag Alliance – are pulling out all the stops to mislead the public and get this bill passed. But in Iowa and beyond, massive opposition has formed against the Cancer Gag Act. Already, this bill has been defeated in THREE state – and we we’re organizing to make sure Iowa’s next!

Join Food & Water Watch and Iowa CCI Action Fund THIS Thursday [today] for a statewide campaign meeting: https://actionnetwork.org/…/kill-the-cancer-gag-act…

We’ll be sharing developments from across the country AND the Iowa Capitol, before jumping into an presentation and exercise to help campaign supporters to confront opposition lies and respond to those who’ve been mislead about what the Cancer Gag Act will mean for Iowa.

We hope to see you Thursday!

    I deeply hate this bill. At the same time, I do not support other efforts around the nation to ban glyphosate. Glyphosate is an essential tool for ecological restoration. There is no adequate substitute. It is maddening that glyphosate has been so massively misused by conventional industrial agriculture that vital needed uses are now imperiled. And of course current ag policies, which are largely a big wet subsidized kiss on the lips of industrial ag, are a big part of the problem.
