What do we want? PVC-free school supplies!

When do we want them? NOW!

As a Conservative, I have never had the chance to march in rallys and chant in memes.  As a Cuban, the idea of doing so is very appealing.  As a Chicagoan, there usually isn’t any parking.

But if I were to dress up in a slogan T Shirt, burn my Hanro bra, wave a placard about wildly, and stick daisy’s in barrels, it would be for a cause such as this: getting that bloody bollocks insidious PVC out of our precious and vulnerable children’s school supplies!   And as soon as I am invited to the Million Mums March, I shall do just that.

Until then, if ever you were a child, have loved one, or have one, please, please, pretty please with organic cherries on top, sign this petition, and spam your friends via email and Facebook to do the same:

“Yesterday we and our friends at MomsRising announced that over 10,000 parents have organized to petition retailers to take toxic PVC school supplies off store shelves.  Momentum is building!  You can join them by signing the petition here, if you haven’t already.  Parents across the country are banding together to give their children a safe back to school sendoff by keeping toxic school supplies out of children’s backpacks and organizing to keep those toxic binders and lunchboxes off of store shelves.”

Sadly, this includes Trapper Keepers.  Fer sure.
