December 8, 2010
Dear Citizen for Health,
Citizens for Health reported yesterday that the latest effort to pass S. 510,
The FDA Food
Safety Modernization Act could involve pushing the bill's language through the
House by
adding it to another bill as an amendment.
Guess what? That's exactly what is happening! Email your Representative NOW and
tell him/her
to vote "NO" on the amendment and kill S. 510!
As reported last week, S. 510 contains a provision that would allow the FDA to
impose fees
on importers and on companies whose food is recalled because of contamination,
but the U.S.
Constitution mandates that all revenue-raising measures must originate in the
House.
This could have meant the end for this dangerous legislation, but the bill's
proponents are
pulling out all the stops in order to realize their goal - to further trample
the rights and
freedoms of anyone opposed to the industrial food orthodoxy and to enshrine big
Agribusiness
as the primary source of what ends up on your kitchen table.
According to the House calendar, today, December 8, they will be considering
the "CR/Food
Safety House Amendment to the Senate Amendment to H.R. 3082 - Full-Year
Continuing
Appropriations Act, 2011/FDA Food Safety Modernization Act". The bill's
supporters are
counting on this ploy because S. 510's language is attached to the bill that
would authorize
continued funding and functioning of the government.
We can't allow this "shell game" to succeed! Big Agribusiness is reeling from
the impact
thousands upon thousands of calls and emails from CFH supporters and other
health freedom
advocates have had on blocking passage of S. 510, and this latest trickery is
an 11th-hour
attempt to eliminate competition from small farms and local food producers.
It's time for
the knockout blow that will kill S. 510 once and for all!
Citizens for Health will continue to monitor the progress of S. 510 and alert
you to any
important developments as they happen. Meanwhile, waste no time - the House
vote may be
happening as you read this!
Do it now! Urge your Representative to oppose this amendment and ANY attempt to
push through
S. 510 as part of ANY bill.
Thanks to all of you who have been participating and helping to hold Congress
accountable,
The Citizens for Health Team
