My son is one of the 47,000 New Mexico children with asthma. He especially needs pollution-free clean air.
Dr. Barrasso just asked the question, why asthma rates are rising in the U.S.
Dear Senator Udall, I have lived with the real life effects of air pollution. As a mother, it is difficult to witness your child struggle with asthma.
Are you saying we have no problem with air pollution in American cities today?
Well, the problem that we have today in our American cities is that the standards that the EPA has put into place are being violated.
Please continue making every effort to protect environmental legislation, sincerely, someone with asthma.
