Antifreeze Bittering Act

[flvegan]

"The Antifreeze Bittering Act (H.R. 2567/S. 1110) is a federal bill that would require the addition of denatonium benzoate to engine coolant/antifreeze to render it unpalatable. Denatonium benzoate is the world’s bitterest known substance. This legislation will help save countless animal lives and reduce the number of childhood emergencies."

Please send a quick note to your reps asking them to support this bill. You can even use the pre-written, formatted letter here:

1. Thanks for that

and if it doesn't pass, look for antifreeze without ethylene glycol. It exists, it's more expensive but it does save lives.

3. Excellent cause!

Only the totally depraved (or antifreeze manufacturers and the politicians they support) would vote to continue to kill Fido and his family!
