Monday, January 02, 2006 - Palm Beach Post - Add pesticide safeguards - In 2004, the Legislature approved some of the first measures to protect migrant farmworkers in decades. The modest reforms toughened licensing rules for contractors and
increased fines for violators. Legislators also required growers to notify farmworkers about pesticide spraying and give them information about the chemicals in use before entering the fields. Lawmakers have three new reasons to build on the pesticide
legislation of two years ago: three babies, born with severe defects to families of farmworkers in Immokalee. While testing to trace
possible causes of the deformities has been inconclusive, all three mothers told The Palm Beach Post that they entered fields soon after pesticide spraying while they were pregnant. The grower, Ag-Mart of Plant City, subsequently announced that it would discontinue the use of certain chemicals linked to birth defects in lab animals.

Tuesday, January 3, 2006 - Pesticides: Too little too late -SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER EDITORIAL BOARD. State agriculture director Valoria Loveland has proved she can sidestep environmental and public protection as artfully as any pro-industry deregulator in Washington, D.C. Seemingly taking a cue from the Bush administration's sleazy habit of doing its nastiest work as business ends on Fridays, Loveland issued a New Year's Eve decision withdrawing her own department's modest proposal for notice of spraying near schools, nursing homes and the like. And, in a touch that Bush operative Karl Rove could admire, she
managed to blame environmentalists, farm worker advocates and schools for her own inaction.
