The Random Leaves Project is an online diary project documenting life's lessons
as learned through the eyes of a health inspector, a pembroke welsh corgi and a runner.

First They Voted

FIRST THEY VOTED to eliminate child care inspections
And I didn't speak up because I didn't have children

THEN THEY VOTED to stop inspecting food service establishments
And I didn't speak up because another agency did those inspections

THEN THEY VOTED to get rid of nursing home and hospital inspectors
And I didn't speak up because I worked in the OSTDS program

THEN THEY VOTED to abolish Environmental Health
And there was no one left to speak up

Environmental Health needs a voice. Are you willing to be part of it?
