Fluoride Action Network

On Friday, the Fluoride Action Network (FAN) submitted its comments to the Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) on its proposal to lower the level of fluoride in drinking water to .7 parts per million. Science clearly shows that even at this level fluoride remains harmful to many Americans. FAN advises HHS to stop fluoridation completely because it is unnecessary, unethical, the benefits wildly exaggerated, and the risks minimized. See FAN's submission to HHS at http://fluoridealert.org/fan-comments.html - (pdf)
It's important that HHS receive as many comments as possible. Please sign the online message to HHS stating support for FAN's submission - just go to http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/2477/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=5734 or write your own comments.
If you receive a bounce-back to this sign-on, please email your comments directly to HSS at CWFcomments@cdc.gov
Please pass this message on to everyone you know through your email, using the "Forward Email" link at the bottom of this email page. Also, spread the word on your social media lists, using the links at the top of this email.
COMMENTS ARE DUE ON OR BEFORE FEBRUARY 14.
