07/30/09 – Thursday Evening Update: Twisting the House of Representative’s Rules to prevent meaningful debate, the governing party adopted the martial law (sic) “food safety” bill, HS 2749.

Congress will be in recess for about three weeks; the Senate will take up the bill at that time. We have much to do to and little time; but we know PUSH BACK WORKS and even this horrid bill now contains language somewhat protective of some natural food solutions. Not enough! But this is a start and we can finish this in the Senate. Thousands have joined the Health Freedom Action eAlert in the past few days. Now it’s time to act!

The History of the Passage of HR 2749:

08/03/09 – Message from the Trustees:

The passage of the insane Food Fascism Bill, H.R. 2749, on July 30, 2009 could be a death nell for both health and freedom if we let it.

Before we go forward, I want to thank you for generating 640,188 emails to your members of the House of Representatives, Secretary Vilsak of the USDA, Secretary Sibelius of HHS, Secretary Negreponte of DHS and President Obama protecting food and freeedom in our bid to defeat H.R. 2749.

We did accomplish several things: massive outrage at this bill made it necessary for the members of the Committee it was stuck in to insert some level of protection through traceability exemptions for small farms selling food “directly to consumers and restaurants” before the bill could get out of committee. That is something. Not enough, but something.

And our strong and continuing opposition managed to make it necessary to engage in all sorts of parliamentary hanky panky to get the bill passed since it was taken off the agenda on Tuesday, failed a vote on Wednesay and then finally passed on Thursday, July 30, 2009. But pass it did and now we have just one shot at making sure this horrific bill does NOT pass the US Senate.

Action Item http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/568/t/1128/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=26714

has been rewritten and updated. If you submitted an action item to the House, we urge you to submit this one to the Senate, and submit one for every member of your household, as well!

07/30/09 – Thursday Morning Update: Congressman Paul’s office just emailed us that HR 2749 is back on the vote schedule today “under a rule” — that means it does not need a super majority to pass today. PLEASE CONTACT YOUR CONGRESSPEOPLE TODAY to vote “NO!”. PHONE CALLS NEEDED NOW! http://www.house.gov/house/MemberWWW.shtml

07/29/09 – Wednesday Evening Update: HR 2749 failed to receive the super majority needed under “suspension of rules” and did not pass today; there may be an attempt to pass it tomorrow.

Still Time To Stop the Food Fascism Bill! – HR 2749!

After sending the below eblast this morning, we had another urgent message from Dr. Ron Paul’s Legislative Aide, Normal Singleton:

[Note from Counsel: Often, controversial bills are on the vote schedule and then off it… several times. A few thousand phone calls and emails RIGHT NOW can make the difference! rf]
