LEGISLATIVE SAMPLE LETTER
Dear
______________:
As one of millions of American women who use
cosmetics every day, I am very concerned about the health risks they pose.
Hundreds of synthetic chemicals are routinely included in everything from
shampoo to eyeshadow, many of which are known carcinogens, neurotoxins and
endocrine disruptors. These substances are not only a threat to human health,
but to the environment as well. The appalling lack of regulation governing the
cosmetic industry prevents the Federal Food and Drug Administration from
properly protecting consumers from the cumulative long-term dangers of cosmetic
use.
On behalf of all women, I hope you will address this
issue.
Sincerely,
Your
Name
