Dispatch: Hasta La Vista BPA

By ACSH Staff — Jul 12, 2010
ACSH is pulling the honorary seat out from under the California Assembly. We honored them prematurely, since the Assembly reversed itself and voted July 1 for a ban on bisphenol A in baby products. The measure now goes to the Senate, where it has already passed, for a reconciliation vote in August; Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger hasn't taken a position on the bill.

ACSH is pulling the honorary seat out from under the California Assembly. We honored them prematurely, since the Assembly reversed itself and voted July 1 for a ban on bisphenol A in baby products. The measure now goes to the Senate, where it has already passed, for a reconciliation vote in August; Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger hasn't taken a position on the bill. We hope he will exercise sound judgment and follow the science on BPA by vetoing this ban.
