RE: AB 710 (Eduardo Garcia) – SUPPORT

Dear Assemblymember Eduardo Garcia:

As a California avocado grower I am writing to inform you of my support for your bill, AB 710, which would prohibit the sale of the listed agricultural produce that do not meet California’s pesticide and labor regulations.

California laws require growers to follow some of the strictest environmental, labor, and health and safety regulations in the country. California’s pesticide regulations, for example, exist in order to ensure health and safety standards for our consumers. The state should ensure that produce sold into the state meet the same requirements.

The California Avocado Coalition supports AB 710 and I ask that you add avocados to the list of agricultural products in your bill. I look forward to working with you to ensure its passage.

Sincerely,

AB 710 Supporter
