Food irradiation is a risky technology with unknown long term health effects. Yet Secretary Vilsack and the administration are considering nominating Dr. Michael Osterholm, a strong proponent of this technology, as Undersecretary of Food Safety. Some research has indicated that food irradiation promotes tumor growth and causes genetic damage, but even worse is that we don't yet understand what the long-term health effects might be.


Can you ask your Tom Vilsack, Secretary of Agriculture, to reconsider Dr. Osterholm's candidacy?
