Please join us today by calling on New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu to veto House Bill (HB) 1698. This bill would allow the aerial spraying of pesticides by drones up to 20 feet in the air without notifying beekeepers and the public, threatening the well-being of pollinators, wildlife, and New Hampshire residents who may cross their path. HB 1698 passed both the House and Senate and is on its way to the governor!

Give Bees a chance!
