>We want the EPA to ban anything that harms bees,  but when they want to
make rules to limit antibiotics we want an exemption.  From the same
family.  Both motions passed.  Very sad.

Not hard to guess the family : )

Actually, there are calls for the EPA to ban anything that anyone *claims*
might harm bees.  And then calls for EPA to look the other way as
commercial beeks dump an illegal witches' brew of pesticides into their own
hives.

Neither of the above play well to the EPA, and cause beekeepers as a whole
to lose credibility with the regulators and ag community.
