Dear Agnes,</p>
<p style="margin: 0.5em 0em 1em; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" align="left"><strong>Today we’re going to court for the bees!</strong></p>
<p style="margin: 0.5em 0em 1em; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" align="left">Despite massive bee die-offs, as recently as June 13 California expanded the use of highly toxic bee-killing pesticides.</p>
<p style="margin: 0.5em 0em 1em; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" align="left">This indifference to bees is disastrous—but with your help, we’re fighting back.</p>

<p style="margin: 0.5em 0em 1em; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" align="left">Bees play a critical role in our food system. Nearly one-third of our crops—including many vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds—depend on bees for pollination.</p>
<p style="margin: 0.5em 0em 1em; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" align="left"><strong>But across America, bee colonies are collapsing, and scientists are pointing to toxic pesticides as a cause.</strong></p>
<p style="margin: 0.5em 0em 1em; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" align="left">My team is fighting in court to stop the approval of toxic bee-killing pesticides, but we are up against powerful corporate interests and <strong><a style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 16px; color: #0093bb; font-family:Calibri,Arial,sans-serif; text-decoration: underline;" href="http://action.earthjustice.org/site/R?i=WLhfeFVrFmao-MuJqvIymA" target="_blank">we need your help.</a></strong></p>
