BABIES BEING BORN PRE-POLLUTED: Sign the petition for Congress to stop this insanity

One of out of every 30 babies today is born with birth defects! It is believed that this incredible increase is due to the toxic load that they carry of about 300 chemicals. Although I am done having babies, my heart breaks for those being born to my friends and family. Please join me in putting an end to this madness and click below to sign the petition.

"What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's."
1 Cor. 6:19-20

Dear miriam,


On Thursday, I testified in a U.S. Senate hearing, and I want to tell you what I told the Senators.

Babies are coming into this world pre-polluted with toxic chemicals.

When EWG tested the umbilical cord blood of 10 Americans, we found nearly 300 chemicals, including BPA, perchlorate, fire retardants, lead, mercury, and PCBs.

The best way to stop this pre-pollution is to enact the Kid-Safe Chemicals Act, which would require that chemicals be proven safe for children before they can be sold.

Click here to sign our petition. Now is the time for Congress to introduce the Kid-Safe Chemicals Act.

The chemicals are in us. The risk of disease and illness is serious.

The chemicals we found are increasingly linked to serious long-term health effects, from childhood cancer and autism to ADHD, learning deficits, infertility, and heart disease. We need a system for assessing chemicals so our children get the healthy start they deserve. The longer Congress waits, the more babies are exposed.

Sign EWG Action Fund's petition to Congress
Join the 1000's of other Americans who are telling Congress it's time for a real federal toxics law that will make chemicals in consumer products safe for kids.

Click here to add your name to our petition. Congress needs to hear from you right now. We've waited long enough.

Thank you for speaking up for a new national chemical policy that places human health front and center -- right where it should be.
