Picket Peter Vallone
Demand He Keep His Promise to Children

Instead of supporting Intro 205, the Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Act, City Council Speaker Peter Vallone is planning to push a bill through the Council that would weaken laws protecting children from lead poisoning. Vallone specifically promised to oppose weakening the laws when he ran for Governor last year.

What You Can Do

1. Call Speaker Vallone at (212) 788-7210.

Tell whoever answers the phone that you want a public hearing on Intro 205, the good lead bill, and that you will hold Speaker Vallone accountable if the Council passes a bad lead bill. (You can write to him at City Hall, New York, NY 10007, or fax a letter to (212) 788-7207.)

2. Call Your Councilmember

Tell your Councilmember that you want a public hearing on Intro 205, and that you want them to vote against any bill that protects children less.

3. Picket Vallone’s District Office
