At Moms Across America, we are committed to promoting health and wellness in our communities. One area of concern that often goes overlooked is the use of toxic chemicals in landscaping practices, particularly within Homeowners' Associations (HOAs).

We believe it's time to raise awareness and advocate for nontoxic alternatives that prioritize the well-being of residents, pets, and the environment. We have had a report of ten dogs dying in one HOA recently with a few weeks after the spraying of glufosinate, a weedkiller. Please take action to be aware of what is being sprayed, when and the safe alternatives that can be used.

To further this mission, we've drafted an open letter addressing the misconceptions surrounding herbicide use and the importance of transitioning to safer, nontoxic landscaping practices. Our goal is to empower residents to engage with their HOAs and push for positive change that benefits everyone.

Join us, using the template below, in advocating for nontoxic landscaping and making our communities safer and healthier places to live. You may use this letter and customize it for your own HOA, taking out or adding in information as needed. You can find more information to aide your appeal at https://www.momsacrossamerica.com/toxin_free_town_campaign under Toxin Free Town campaign. Together, we can create positive change and promote a greener, more sustainable future for all.

On 19 4月, the Philippine Supreme Court issued a cease-and-desist order on the commercial propagation of genetically modified (GM) Golden Rice and GM eggplant in the country, Countercurrents recently reported.

Thanks to your support, Moms Across America has collaborated with GMOScience and The New MDS to test toxic metals in baby formula, and we are extremely dismayed by the results. We had hoped some formulas would be free from toxic and heavy metals, but they were not. We were shocked to see such high levels of toxic metal aluminum present in goat's milk formula and urge the manufacturers and the FDA to immediately take action to resolve this issue.

The following report on the toxic metals by Dr. Michelle Perro, founder of GMOScience.org a 43 veteran pediatrician, clearly explains the problem we have and what we can do.

Moms Across America urges our network, the media, citizens or America and the world to insist that their elected officials take action to protect babies - the future of our countries, and ensure a safe future for us all.

Moms Across America is thrilled to report that a new bill has been presented to make baby food and potentially baby formula safer. In addition, the FDA has made encouraging statements about regulating heavy metals in baby formula just one week after we met with them regarding toxins in the food supply. The below CNN article reports that the FDA commissioner is calling for Congress to approve (give them the ability) to regulate heavy metals in baby food. They also requested to add baby formula (exactly what we requested) and all critical foods to children.

In summary:

• Consumer advocacy works - testing baby formula and meeting with the FDA clearly made a difference.
• Your elected official must approve and give the FDA permission to do their jobs.
• Continued consumer pressure on elected officials is imperative.

We enthusiastically applaud Senator Klobuchar and fellow Democrats Sen. Tammy Duckworth of Illinois, Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi of Illinois, and Rep. Tony Cárdenas of California for sponsoring this bill. It takes a tremendous amount of research and time for our elected officials to devote their efforts to a particular bill. The bill will not pass without support however, and your elected officials are the only ones who can make this happen. They need to hear from you! We encourage all of our supporters to contact their elected officials - Senators そして Representatives today and tell them that we want support for this bill. Tell them specially we need it to include baby formula.

We urge our Senators and Representatives from both sides of the aisle to remember that toxins are not partisan. Heavy metals, pesticides, and contaminants damage a baby's development, impair their ability to function, and prevent them from fulfilling their potential regardless of their parent's political party. It is imperative that our politicians come together to support this bill.

We also extend the deepest respect and gratitude to Dr. Michelle Perro of GMOScience.org and author of What's Making Our Children Sick for initiating the baby formula project, our Moms Across America supporters, our director Zen Honeycutt author of 止められない and the laboratory who made the heavy metal testing possible, Kelly Ryerson of GlyphosateFacts.com who attended the meetings, and Siekman and Siekman and Associates who arranged the meetings, and Stephanie Seneff PhD, our scientific advisor, author of Toxic Legacy and partner on The New MDS where we will announce the baby formula testing results. We are delighted that even before we released the results to the public, our elected officials have already taken action. Tune in on Tuesday 5月 21, 2024 at 3pm on ET on Rumble to hear all about the baby formula results!

Last week, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill into law to ban cell-cultivated or “lab-grown” meat from the Sunshine State. “Take your fake lab-grown meat elsewhere,” DeSantis said. “We're not doing that in the state of Florida,” reported the Sarasota Herald Tribune. Anyone involved in selling, making, or distributing cultivated meat in Florida could face fines of up to $500 and 60 days in jail – the sentencing equivalent to assault and battery.

親愛なる友人、

The trees, bushes, and bunnies are bursting with life on our farm. May brings a flurry of flowers and a saturation of fresh, green, grassy pastures. The new growth invigorates my family, friends, and fellow activists. Life is what we work every day to protect.

This past week we were in Washington DC, meeting with our Senators and Representatives representing mothers and parents everywhere – requesting their partnership in creating healthy communities by providing access to safe, nontoxic nutrient-dense food.

We exposed the truth about the food supply through the testing we have conducted. Last year we tested school lunches and then the top 20 + 1 fast food brands from across the country and found glyphosate in 93%-100% of them, heavy metals in 100%, and veterinary drugs in hormones in 10-60% of the samples. Vitamin and nutrient density was so low that one could not truly call it food. The lab owner stated “The testing revealed that there are actually more toxins than nutrients in American school lunches and fast food.”

From our friends at the 食品安全センター

Moms Across America Editor’s Note: The following is an email from our friends at Center For Food Safety about Monsanto's efforts to get a new kind of GMO corn seed approved by the USDA.

If the approval goes through, it will almost certainly mean higher concentrations of even more pesticides in our food. We are appalled that our government allows chemical companies to spray poison on our food and feed for livestock we consume.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0959652622027445?lctg=102460690Processed foods are once again a hot topic. Between catastrophic externalized costs, new diet drugs, rampant price gouging and a growing wave of regulations, processed foods are attracting all the wrong attention. But processing may also be key to reinvigorating the best and brightest trends in the food industry.

“Fed is Best” may be the biggest lie in all Big Formula marketing – of which there are many. Formula companies spend billions on promotion and much of their efforts target mothers and medical professionals in hospitals, urging supplementation of formula in the first few days after birth, based on the false premise that all post-partum moms are under-producing. The resulting often unnecessary supplementation then signals the mother’s breasts to underproduce during the time the lactation system is ramping up for the duration of babyhood – a self fulfilling sabotage of mothers who otherwise would have exclusively breastfed (more than 80% plan to).
