Friends of Bees urge you to follow the lead of NOFA/Mass:
The Mass. state legislature is now considering which non-COVID-related bills it will take up before the session ends. This means that we have one more chance to ban consumer use pollinator-killing neonic pesticides before the 2-year session ends in December. Collectively we have generated many thousands of emails and calls to state legislators, resulting in broad bipartisan support, but they need to know this is still important to us now.
The Mass. Pollinator Protection Act (H.763) would ban consumer use of neonics and promote pollinator habitat. The bill has the support of over 75% of the legislature and is supported by Baker Administration’s own recent literature review, which confirmed that neonics are a significant contributor to pollinator decline. Please help us get them to prioritize this bill in the final weeks of the session.
