An Open Letter

To: Asm. Connolly, Sen. McGuire, Gov. Newsom

From: A verified voter in Forest Knolls, CA

August 18

I’m very concerned about the deaths and permanent damage caused by the fabrication of engineered stone products especially countertops. Australia has actually banned these products due to the high levels of injury caused by. California should take this seriously and follow the example set by Australia. Here is a citation and articles from the NIH: Cavalin C, Menéndez-Navarro A, Lescoat A. The Banning of Engineered Stone in Australia: An Evidence-Based and Precautionary Policy. Int J Soc Determinants Health Health Serv. 2025 Oct;55(4):415-423. doi: 10.1177/27551938251314656. Epub 2025 Jan 30. PMID: 39881609. Under our current federal administration I don’t expect federal action on this but California should act immediately to protect workers.
