To: Council Testimony
Subject: Bill 91
Please take the time to testify to the county council in support of Bill 91. here's my brief testimony
Dear Councilmembers:
I am very grateful to the Council once again tackling this ongoing concern. Since the first time that the Council
looked at the health concerns surrounding Glyphosate use as well as certain other herbicides, the data has continued to
accumulate on their negative health impacts. Legal decisions have also, weighing the preponderance of evidence,
come down in favor of those whose lives have been devastated by chronic exposure to glyphosate based herbicides,
this in spite of opposition by an army of well paid corporate legal teams. I will not bore you by droning on about these
health impacts as I have done in the past, but would be happy to share any of that information with you if you contact
me.
I hope that the council will look favorably on this bill which clearly has been written in the spirit of compromise. I am
also hopeful that you will pass Bill 91 and that the Mayor will sign it into law. My thanks to all of you for your
public service.
Sincerely and with Aloha,
Karin Cooke, BS, RN
