Action Alert! Write to Congress today about the EPA's threat to American jobs
Recently, EPA announced its intent to impose new limits on the level of dioxin in soil. Despite the fact that Americans’ exposure to dioxin has declined more than 90% over the last 20 years and EPA has failed to provide any new science suggesting that this is a public health priority, EPA is racing the clock to impose over-the-top regulations and plans to finalize these new standards by the end of June.
What the EPA plans to do on dioxin regulations and countless Superfund sites around the country threatens many municipalities with an unfunded mandate that we just cannot afford.
Write to Congress today! Ask them to discourage EPA from taking further action on dioxin soil regulations until the EPA addresses the concerns of the National Academy of Sciences and publishes its final regulations on the reassessment of health effects.

Health Care Reform
One of the most pressing issues facing New Jersey and the rest of the nation is the effort to reform our system of health care. Health care reform proposals at the state and federal level could impact you, your family, and your prosperity. Our health care information pages give you details on the effects of reform, as well as access to contact your lawmakers with your views on specific legislation.

Employee Privacy Rights
The so-called Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA), or 'card check' legislation jeopardizes employee privacy rights. Our EFCA information pages help explain how this proposed change to the way employers and employees interact can affect you and your job.
