OFFTOPIC - US legislation
Posted: Fri Dec 08, 2006 1:31 am
Last night, December 6th, the AER bill PASSED the Senate on the consent calendar and was sent over to the House. It is not on the House calendar yet today, but we have until end of tomorrow for session. This bill will create similar requirements for foods, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients as are required for drugs. This will cause foods, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients to be considered the same as drugs, and will give the Federal Drug Administration the right to regulate them.
A CHANCE STILL EXISTS THAT it could be heard or tacked on to another bill. It is all happening very fast.
Here's what to do now:
Immediately call for a STOP to S 3546 and HR 6168 AER bills
please go to http://www.healthkeepers.net/national_issues.php
for more details. Please contact your representatives.
