To the EPA Pesticide Division:

Moms Across America and our supporters: retail brands, pediatricians, scientists, physicians, health coaches, teachers, farmers, lawyers, and consumers, are requesting that you review the 67 studies that were not included in your review of glyphosate as a carcinogen that the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) reviewed and revise your decision regarding the license of glyphosate. We request you also review the new studies connecting glyphosate to many reproductive and endocrine-disrupting issues. Hundreds of independent studies have shown that glyphosate is harmful in many ways, not only as a carcinogen. Glyphosate also has endocrine disrupting properties at very low levels and can cause neurological, nervous system, reproductive, sperm, liver, kidney, and organ damage as well as miscarriages.

There is no safe level of glyphosate in our food or livestock feed supply, and you are the only agency that has the authority to change the current reality: harmful levels of glyphosate contaminate school lunches, fast food, baby food, and gluten-free food. In the past, glyphosate has been detected in thousands of food samples and other substances, including oats, chickpeas, beans, wheat, soy, corn, orange juice, wine, beer, eggs, bread, snacks, cereals, honey, and even breastmilk, hospital gauze, feminine sanitary products, childhood vaccines, and sperm.

America has a physical, mental, and reproductive health crisis, and glyphosate is a significant contributing factor to all of these severely critical issues. Your agency must take action now to protect the health and future of our country.

We are asking you to:

  1. Review all of the studies the IARC reviewed and all new independent studies available today on glyphosate and all health effects.
  2. Revoke the license of glyphosate.
  3. Until the license is revoked, immediately disallow glyphosate from being used as a drying agent or pre-harvest weed killer on all agricultural crops. The EU has recently banned pre-harvest spray with glyphosate to minimize dietary exposure. We are asking you to do the same.

Thank you for taking action to protect the American public's health, not the corporations' profits.

We hope you appreciate that when you reflect on your legacy one day, it will be one of courage, commitment, and integrity.

Thank you.

    My husband and I started a 5 acre homestead in 2005 in order to provide healthy eggs, milk and meat for our children. By 2008 our daughter could once again eat eggs when we mixed our own feed rations from organic grains and omitted soy and corn altogether.


    At one point, we were waiting for the new crop of grain to be harvested, and purchased some conventional feed to tide our flock of ducks through until we could get the supplies for their normal feed. Within 2 days our daughter reacted to the eggs. I waited until 3 weeks after we had organic feed again, since I knew it typically takes 3 weeks for a substance that is eaten to completely clear the body. At that point she could again eat the eggs without getting a rash reaction.


    With this, and additional evidence, we realized that it was the GMOs that came into the food chain just before I was pregnant with our daughter that she was reacting to. Even when GMO feeds were fed to animals, she could not eat the eggs or milk produced by those animals without reacting.


    She is now 23, and still carefully manages her diet so that she can live an active and productive life.


    It is vitally important for our children, our elderly, and everyone in our country that GMO wheat is not allowed in the USA so that our people are not sentenced to live in misery for the financial benefit of Monsanto and other politicians. If the FDA and USDA allow additional GMO crops in the USA with all of the current evidence of the harm they cause, those organizations are not serving their purpose of protecting our people.

    Enough of the insanity with GMO foods and Glyphosate. Americans are getting sicker and sicker. We reclaim our food and move into regenerative farming.
