Time to man the phones, again!!!
We have two important pieces of legislation that need to be voted down today.
In the Senate:
S-510. If you have not read into Codex, please understand that this legislation will basically insert the Federal government into farming and agriculture down to your private garden. This is the farthest most intrusive move into agriculture since Roosevelt. Full support of Codex will include restrictions into the ability to purchase dietary supplements. Call our Senators and make sure you assert that we do not need the Federal government involved in every bite of our food under the disguise of protection for our own good.
Senator Evan Bayh can be reached at 202-224-5623.
Senator Richard Lugar can be reached at 202-224-4814.
In the House:
HR 3808, a piece of legislation that was vetoed by President Obama that needs to remain in the scrap bin of history. This bill would effectively protect the banking industry from any legal recourse regarding the mortgage fraud that appears to have been rappant. This bill works retroactively and would shield the industry both criminally and civily. Congressman Donnelly's number:
