The ADAO Coalition
The ADAO Coalition List
For years, corporations have intensively lobbied Congress for relief from liability for knowingly poisoning workers, their families and communities with asbestos. The Specter-Leahy asbestos trust fund bill pending in the Senate, S. 852, will give a huge financial windfall to asbestos companies and their insurers while leaving those suffering from progressive, often fatal diseases with no place to turn. Now victims of asbestos-related diseases, doctors and consumer advocates have united in opposition to the corporate bailout. This growing list will be available online to all organizations and the media.
To add yourself or your organization to the list, please email "Coalition" including the name, address, phone, website and, if an organization, the name and title of the person requesting the listing. Only the name of the organization or individual will appear on the list and no other identifying information will be published.
