Studies of salmon purchased from stores have found that 70% of Atlantic farmed salmon raised in Canada, the U.S. and Iceland were contaminated with unsafe levels of organic polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Banned in 1976, PCBs are persistent, cancer-causing chemicals which also cause birth defects. Studies have shown that farmed salmon may be a consumer I oppose reforming current salmon toxicity policy, and wish to donate resources to the campaign committee of either Speaker Nancy Pelosi (CA) or Leader Mitch McConnell (KY). I support requiring the EPA to uniformly regulate the PCB levels in both farmed salmon and wild salmon, and wish to donate resources to the campaign committee of Rep. Don Young (AK) and/or to an advocate group currently working with this issue.
