Take Action:Tell 99 Cents Only not to bargain with our health!

¡Dígale a las tiendas 99 Cents Only que no negocien con nuestra salud!

As other dollar stores have made progress to phase out harmful chemicals from their products after facing pressure from consumers, 99 Cents Only Stores have earned an F on every single Retailer Report Card since 2017.

New tests from the Campaign for Healthier Solutions show that 99 Cents Only Stores continue to sell products that contain toxic chemicals including BPA, lead, phthalates, the “poison plastic” PVC, and PFAS. Studies have linked many of these endocrine-disrupting chemicals to increased risks for cancer, reduced fertility, developmental disabilities, obesity, diabetes and other serious health conditions. When children are exposed to lead and phthalates, it can harm brain health, lead to lower IQ, attention and behavior issues, and ADHD.

Take Action! Email 99 Cents Only leadership to demand that they commit to phasing out toxic chemicals from their products.

Alerta de Acción: ¡Dígale a las tiendas 99 Cents Only que no negocien con nuestra salud!

Mientras que otras tiendas de dólar han logrado avances para eliminar gradualmente sustancias químicas dañinas de sus productos después de haber enfrentado presión por parte de consumidores, las tiendas 99 Cents Only Stores han logrado una calificación de F en cada Boleta de Calificaciones de Tiendas desde el 2017.

Nuevas evaluaciones de la Campaña para Soluciones Saludables (Campaign for Healthier Solutions) muestran que las tiendas de 99 Cents Only Stores siguen vendiendo productos que contienen sustancias químicas tóxicas incluyendo BPA, plomo, ftalatos, el ‘plástico venenoso’ PVC, y PFAS. Los estudios han ligado muchas de estas sustancias químicas perturbadoras de endocrinas con mayores riesgos de cáncer, reducción de la fertilidad, discapacidades del desarrollo, obesidad, diabetes y otras condiciones graves de salud.

¡Toma Acción! Envíele un correo electrónico al liderazgo de 99 Cents Only para exigir que restablezca comunicación con la Campaña para Soluciones Saludables, que se unan al Chemical Footprint Project, y que se comprometan a eliminar gradualmente las sustancias químicas tóxicas!

Take Action: Tell dollar stores to do more to get toxic chemicals out of products

99 Cents Only leadership

Subject: Toxics out of products now!

Message:

I’m writing to you as a concerned customer, to encourage 99 Cents Only Stores to take meaningful steps to eliminate toxic chemicals from its products. Recent tests released by the Campaign for Healthier Solutions show frightening levels of lead, PFAS, BPA, phthalates and PVC in 99 Cents Only staples that many families rely on, from canned food to electronics. This is especially upsetting given that 99 Cents Only has known about the likely presence of these chemicals in their products since 2015, when CHS first urged the company to transition to safer alternatives. I urge you to: -Re-establish communication with representatives from the Campaign for Healthier Solutions as soon as possible. -Participate in the Chemical Footprint Project. -Publicly release a chemical policy that includes a restricted substance list and commitments to phase out specific chemicals of concern by 2023. Other retailers have already taken significant steps to work with their suppliers to disclose, reduce, and eliminate toxic chemicals in their supply chain. For example, Dollar Tree has already identified and successfully removed 17 chemicals on their restricted substance list (RSL) from the products that they sell, and committed to further identifying chemicals to add to their RSL. And notably, they have committed to eliminating phthalates and PFAS from their private label products by 2022. Please, protect your customers by taking steps to get harmful chemicals out of your products! Sincerely,
