AEP is spraying Roundup herbicide OVER OUR HOMES while we stand right outside! This is dangerous and toxic.

We pay sky-high utility rates every month so AEP Kentucky Power can spray us like weeds with cancer-causing glyphosate pesticides. No consent, no warning just toxic drift landing on our yards, kids, pets, lungs… and now devastating our bees.

A close friend and multiple of her neighbors watched their hives collapse after the latest spraying. Bees were dying by the hundreds right at the hive entrances crawling, twitching, and gone within days. Entire colonies wiped out: strong, productive hives that had survived winter, producing honey and pollinating local gardens. Beekeeping isn’t cheap or easy, it costs thousands in equipment, woodenware, feed, mite treatments, and protective gear, plus hundreds of hours of hands-on work every single season tending, inspecting, and harvesting. All that investment and labor destroyed overnight by AEP’s chemical drift.

If we let this continue, we’re killing off the pollinators that make our food and flowers possible gardens fail, fruit trees don’t produce, crops suffer, and the whole local ecosystem takes a hit. This is exactly why we must hold AEP and the companies producing these poisons fully accountable. They do NOT deserve immunity. These are costly, cancer-causing chemicals with zero regard for our health or livelihoods.
Side effects they don’t want you talking about:

• Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma & other cancers in humans
• Respiratory damage, headaches, nausea, and neurological issues
• Skin/eye irritation that lingers
• Hormone disruption & reproductive harm
• Mass bee deaths, foragers poisoned in the field, hives collapsing with dead bees piled at entrances, queens failing, entire colonies lost, threatening pollination, honey production, gardens, and our food supply

We’re funding our own poisoning and the destruction of local beekeeping while AEP gets a free pass. Demand accountability NOW… no more spraying over homes, no more bee killing drift, no more hiding behind immunity, and no more jacking up our rates for toxic “vegetation management.”

Who else in Pikeville or AEP areas is losing hives and seeing dead bees?

@jasonllevin YES!!!

The U.S. Senate just voted to pollute one of Minnesota’s most beloved places: the Boundary Waters.
Let’s be clear why: more money for billionaires.

Twin Metals and its parent companies are mega-corporations owned by a billionaire family based in Chile. They have a long track record of pollution and environmental devastation, and despite their assurances that this mining is “safe,” decades of research show otherwise.

Twin Metals would bring fewer than 750 jobs to the region, with most of its operations being autonomous and remote, but it risks thousands of jobs in tourism and hospitality. The BWCA is the most visited wilderness in America, attracting almost 150,000 tourists and over $80 million in annual spending to the region.

This won’t bring long-term prosperity. It will cost us millions in healthcare and environmental cleanup.

Mining can be done right, only in the right places. This is the wrong type of mine, in the wrong place.

All watersheds are connected. What happens in one place harms another, and pollution near the BWCA will migrate into the BWCA and the surrounding watershed.

Republicans are in the pockets of big corporations that want to threaten our Minnesota heritage and one of the most pristine environments in the nation.
We must take back the U.S. House and overturn this reckless policy.

•The U.S. Senate may hold a floor vote TODAY which would overturn a 20-year moratorium on sulfide-ore copper mining on 225,000 acres of Superior National Forest land in the watershed of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA) Wilderness in northern Minnesota. The Boundary Waters is the most visited Wilderness in the United States. 

🛶 Enjoying the Minnesotan/Canadian wilderness by canoe or other lesser watercraft is one of our nations greatest available pastimes, and one I have personally enjoyed my entire life. We must protect these public lands from the rapacious capitalists threatening to turn them into a poisoned wasteland.

•This vote in Congress would open the door to copper mining at the headwaters of this entire ecosystem. This kind of mining produces toxic pollution, including acid runoff and heavy metals, that can contaminate nearby waters.

•The Boundary Waters supports a major outdoor economy that sustains thousands of jobs and generates over a billion dollars a year - built on clean water and intact public lands. But this vote would clear the way for toxic mining that puts all of that at risk. It would also set a dangerous precedent, making it easier to roll back protections for public lands across the country, including wilderness areas, national monuments, and national parks. 

•This is a defining moment. If you care about clean water, public lands, and protecting places we can’t replace, now is the time to speak up.
•Protect the Boundary Waters, and vote NO on House Joint Resolution 140. Let’s save this treasured place for all of us—forever. https://t.co/JhNAR6Za2O

Yep, very familiar! Thank you!

[Kathleen Malone @SundanceSuccess]

@SpeakerJohnson Oh, and, oops!

[Kathleen Malone @SundanceSuccess]

@SpeakerJohnson Since the Repugs control the White House, Senate, and House, you should put it to a vote instead of sending everyone home.

IF you want to be 'fair' to the American people & your constituents.

It seems you're projecting, again, Moses Mikey!

This is one of the craziest things you’ll ever hear.

In the 90s, researchers documented glyphosate’s toxicity after it was sprayed on Colombian villages while trying to stop cocaine production.

“In the 90s, they were using glyphosate in Colombia for cocaine eradication.”

“They were just literally dropping this stuff on villages.”

“These villagers were being doused with Roundup pretty regularly from the government.”

“These researchers actually went in and took blood from these people and compared their blood and the genotoxic damage in their cells pre exposure and after exposure.”

“They documented scientifically that as you spray people with Roundup, you increase the risks of these genotoxic reactions, which can lead to cancer.” “The more you spray, the more of this reaction you saw in these people.”

“And this is during a time when Monsanto was telling people it’s safe enough to drink.”

After a 108-day journey across America, Buddhist monks and Aloka the Peace Dog reached Washington, D.C., carrying a message of peace and compassion.

The “peace monks” who have been walking 108 days, starting in Texas, arrived in DC today. The sun came out. So did a lot of people tired of the ugliness.
