S.595 Toxic Right-to-Know Protection Act

I CALL THIS "THE CULPRIT!" WE WOULD HAVE NEVER HAVE HAD TO ENDURE THE MISERY THAT MY FAMILY AND OTHERS LIKE OURSELVES HAVE IF THIS IMPERATIVE LAW WAS PASSED AGAIN. OUR LIVES LIKE SO MANY OTHERS ACROSS THE UNITED STATES WOULD HAVE SAVED OURSELVES THE ANGUISH OF LOOSING EVERYTHING AT THE HANDS OF GREEDY OIL COMPANIES AND THE EPA WHOM ARE SUPPOSED TO BE PROTECTING THE PUBLIC AND NOT UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF OIL COMPANY'S LOBBYISTS AND POLITICIANS.

IF WE WOULD HAVE HAD THE PROTECTION UNDER THIS LAW,WE WOULD HAVE NEVER PURCHASED OUR HOME IN THE FIRST PLACE! NO WONDER WHY WHEN WE ASK QUESTIONS FROM OUR POLITICIANS AND THE IEPA AS WELL AS THE EPA AND THE CITY EPA ,THEY START TO HIDE UNDER THEIR DESKS OR STICK THEIR COUNSEL IN OUR FACE. WHOM IS PROTECTING WHOM? THIS IS A SCANDAL,A DISGRACE AND UTTERLY DISGUSTING AND DESPICABLE THAT THEY WOULD PUT THE LIVES SUCH AS MY LITTLE BOY THROUGH ALL OF THIS AND TOTALLY DESTROY A FAMILY'S LIFE IN THE NAME OF GREED! ANYBODY READING THIS PLEASE BEWARE,IF YOU THINK THAT THIS DOESN'T PERTAIN TO YOU,THINK AGAIN.

THIS SCANDAL SHOULD BE ALL OVER THE MEDIA,OR DO CHILDREN AND THE ELDERLY OR ANY HUMAN BEING FOR THAT MATTER HAVE TO DIE TO GET THIS LAW BACK ON THE BOOKS IMMEDIATELY.

POLITICIANS IN WASHINGTON SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES,IT IS TIME TO STAND UP FOR PEOPLE'S RIGHTS.

AS A MOTHER AND A CITIZEN,I WILL NOT STOP THIS FIGHT UNTIL MY FAMILY AND OTHERS ACROSS THIS NATION RECEIVE JUSTICE! THIS IS MY PROMISE!
