The Birds and Bees Protection Act has already passed the New York State Assembly and Senate. All that’s needed is Governor Hochul’s signature to pass this act and ban the most toxic pesticides harmful to the birds and bees…and us!

The most effective way to urge the Governor to pass the bill is to call her office at:

1-518-474-8390. It will take you two minutes!

You will likely reach voice mail so be prepared to leave a message.

Here’s a simple message you can leave:

 “Governor Hochul, please pass the Birds and Bees Protection Act which bans toxic pesticides harmful to our environment and human health.”
