I would like to see better enforcement of the Worker Protection Standards that protect farm workers from hazardous pesticide exposure. According to the data I've gathered from field research and from the EPA, there is a lack of proper enforcement of the laws protecting this particular occupational group. Better monitoring of pesticide application would help.
