In April 2025, the Idaho Medical Freedom Act was passed. Leslie Manookian of the Health Freedom Defense Fund crafted the legislation and lobbied for it to become law, in order to protect residents of Idaho from being fired, excluded, or discriminated against for not taking or using a medical intervention. What if you could pass similar legislation where you live? Would you like insights on how to preserve medical freedom for you and your community?   Leslie today gives us the back story on what motivated her in the first place to help her fellow Idahoans. And she describes the hurdles she faced as she pushed to get the act passed.

Provision 453 of the current House Appropriations bill for FY 2026 will create, in effect, a kind of liability shield for pesticide companies, protecting them from lawsuits. This means that if you are made sick by their products you will have no real legal recourse, even though scientific evidence points to the harm caused by their products. Today, molecular toxicologist Dr. Alexandra Muñoz helps us examine this particular provision that is in front of U.S. lawmakers right now. We invite you to learn more about what’s at stake, the ramifications of this bill's passage, and to act swiftly to communicate to U.S. representatives in the House and Senate that we do NOT want this bill passed with this provision.
