June 19th 2009 - WAKE UP!!!
PLEASE write/call your congressman and find and sign ALL
petitions against this... or we are majorly screwed.
Please tell everyone who wants organic foods.....
US House and Senate are about (in a week and a half) to
vote on bill that will OUTLAW ORGANIC FARMING (bill HR
875). There is an enormous rush to get this into law within the
next 2 weeks before people realize what is happening.
Main backer and lobbyist is Monsanto - chemical and
genetic engineering giant corporation (and Cargill, ADM, and
about 35 other related agri-giants). This bill will require
organic farms to use specific fertilizers and poisonous insect
sprays dictated by the newly formed agency to "make sure
there is no danger to the public food supply". This will include
backyard gardens that grow food only for a family and not for
sales.
If this passes then NO more heirloom clean seeds but only
Monsanto genetically altered seeds that are now showing up
with unexpected diseases in humans.
There is a video on the subject.

The name on this outrageous food plan is:
Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009 (bill HR 875).
THIS IS REAL, FOLKS! PASS THIS ALONG TO ALL
CONCERNED ON YOUR MAILING LISTS & CALL YOUR
SENATE REPRESENTETIVES TODAY!
Get on that phone and burn up the wires. Get anyone else
you can to do the same thing. The House and Senate WILL pass
this if they are not massively threatened with loss of their
position.... They only fear your voice and your vote.
The best thing to do is go to www.house.gov/writerep
all you have to do is put in your zip and it will give you
your congressperson and how to get in touch with them. When
you call their office someone will answer the phone, just
tell them (politely) that you are calling to express your
views on HR 875. Tell them your views, they'll take your name
and address and pass your comments along to the congressperson.
