that is leading unquestionably to the cancer rates.
And certainly this is an issue that has touched my life personally.
I lost my grandma to pancreatic cancer.
My father, because of his exposure to Agent Orange, he's dealt with several bouts of cancer.
And nearly the day that I launched my campaign, my sister got diagnosed with stage two breast cancer.
And she just underwent a double mastectomy about two weeks ago.
To tell you how broken the healthcare system is, she has private insurance and her private insurance came to her and basically said, you don't have enough cancer.
They said, because you- Yeah.
They said, because you only have stage two breast cancer, not stage three or stage four, we will not cover the PET scan to see if the cancer spread to other parts of your body.
That's insane.
So we did not know if the cancer had spread to her lymph nodes or any other place until she went under the knife.
I mean, this is what is so fundamentally wrong with the healthcare system is you're maximizing profits
just off the backs of the most vulnerable.
But absolutely, this addressing the cancer rate and addressing the root cause, which is the lack of regulations in place on what we're seeing with the nitrate levels.
And there's some common sense things that we can do that the farmers are in favor of doing.
We don't have to go up to the farmers.
We could put a lot of incentives in place.
We could put incentives so that they don't put down fertilizer in the fall and in the winter.
We can put down incentives so that they put down cover crops or have land barriers like many other states do.
Or we can at least have an EPA that's well-funded and with some enforcement mechanisms in place and maybe droplets allowable with nitrate levels.
