Script

“Hi, my name is _________ and I live in __________, Ohio. I am calling to ask Representative/Senator ________ to oppose HB 282/SB171 the radioactive brine as a commodity bill. I am deeply concerned about the spreading of this highly radioactive waste in Ohio communities. HB 282/SB171 would allow anyone, anywhere to spread this substance for dust or ice control. The Ohio Turnpike and Department of Transportation will no longer use it, the Ohio Department of Health has not studied the long-term effects and the Ohio Department of Natural Resources said that the bill is not protective of public health or the environment.

Please tell Representative/Senator ________ to oppose this legislation. We need him/her to be a strong opponent of HB282/SB171 and stand to protect Ohioans’ health and safety. The health and safety of our communities and our children are more important than one individual's profit.
