Dear Editor:
There are at least four main reasons to vote to eliminate fluoride from our drinking water:
1. Research claims fluoride is a toxic substance that is a risk of cancer, weakens bones, thyroid risks, etc. (check reliable online resources for lists).
2. Fluoride is a compound with usually a metal and it is a non-pharmaceutical drug that should not be ingested.
3. We get plenty of fluoride from toothpaste and other products.
4. It costs our water district $24,000 a year which we help pay.
Please help us and our children by removing fluoride from our drinking water.
