Jerry, Yes, a copy of a polished draft of FPLA 2010 to the White House, in the hope that the goal of "harmonization" of US Public Law and the EU Directive will stimulate attention.
However, the FPLA contains many other Acts of Congress which assign authorities to the FDA, USDA, FTC, BATF, EPA, etc.; and legislation is the duty of the Congress not a function of the Executive Branch except by executive orders of limited scope; so President Obama can not simply sign FPLA 2010 into law without prior action by Congress.
