But I'm sure the #PartyOfLife wouldn't support policies that hurt children, would they??

"Today's decision proves that collective action works. The 3,100 submissions opposing a 100-fold increase in glyphosate residues represent thousands of New Zealanders who refused to accept a future of higher chemical residues in their food. Farmers, consumers, health advocates, and environmental champions came together and changed the course of food policy in this country."

"Ashley Furniture spokespeople said the company follows all laws and regulations for furniture manufacturing."
This is a reminder that the "laws and regulations" just define the worst you can do without criminal or civil penalties.
The laws and regulations do not mean that it is safe. Just that the company cannot be held accountable for their actions if they follow "all laws and regulations"

Just one more piece of evidence about how trustworthy the industry's claims of safety are:
Maybe the precautionary principle is a good idea? If you don't look for toxic consequences, you won't find them. And "complying with all requirements and laws" doesn't mean risks have been adequately assessed.
