“By signing the Birds and Bees Protection Act, Governor Hochul is protecting pregnant women, children, and families in New York, by making sure that they are drinking cleaner water and eating healthier food,” said Dr. Kathleen Nolan, a pediatrician and President of New York’s chapter of Physicians for Social Responsibility. “None of us should consume any nicotine-like compounds, much less high levels of them and it is up to Governor Hochul to make sure that no one is allowed to add such chemicals to our food and drinking water.”
