addition to my earlier comments:
Where are the Homeopathy Companies in all of this?
Washington,Heiland,Boiron etc if this goes thru - they will only be dealing with Doctors who for thew most part have no clue - just like with Vitamins, most of them do not know what they are doing with Vitamins and nutrition, now they will dispense homeopathy? The Homeopathy companies have been making money from all of us who use and dispense remedies, lets get them involved to lobby. The NCH should be doing that.
But here is another evil thought maybe those companies are willing participants in this farce, any one who has called Washington for remedies they only want to sell to 'licensed' practitioners. Think about it!

Subject: Re: [Minutus] Legislation as a danger to homeopathy: Attn Dana Ullman and David Little
I got that information with a 'please share it'.
Yes, there are organizations getting together. I think for this kind of thing we need lots and lots of organizations, one will not do it. AND we need to bombard our Congressmen with this bill.
Yes, bombard, call them!! A call is worth a thousand names on a petition. An email is also worth a lot.
Big money is paying to sneak this legislation in under our nose. This, just like the GMO legislation is burried in a large document and they hoped we would not see it and the public would not be aware of it.
We need to hit these congress people on THREE fronts to protect ourselves in the USA - 1) on freedom of choice to purchase or use homeopathic medicine, herbals and vitamins. 2) the right to chose vaccination or not 3) And, we want GMO's labeled in the USA.
We are being worn down by this kind of thing. The hearings will be held, but hearings like petitions go un-noticed if possible. Lets be honest here,
big money is being donated to large campaigns, and big money talks. BUT the poiliticians want to be re-elected, If we call them and tell them what we want in no uncertain terms they MUST listen to us or they will not be re-elected. So they need to be hit where it does the most good. WE want their vote against this legislation. We want the right to choose what is right for ourselves, not let big brother and the pharmaceuticals and the GMO people force us into using what they produce, it is our choice.
Realize they are trying to wear us down. Even if we win this one, there will be another one as soon as we feel confident it is over, another will be snuck in under our noses. Big Pharma stands to lose a lot of money if we win, and they have the money to keep on plugging at this. Only people, one at a time, calling up and demanding results can win this for us.
So, please, please, please put your organizations together, we need a united front of many organizations all with a lot of people in them all calling our Congressmen and women and demanding our rights. That is the only way this is going to be ok.
