- Subject: [Market-farming] food safety bill passes Senate
- Date: Tue, 30 Nov 2010 11:54:22 -0500
I just got a call saying the Senate version of the food safety bill (S510), which includes the Tester amendment, just passed the Senate and while the House version is probably better from a small farmers' point of view there will likely be no reconciliation so the senate version will probably be the one the House votes on and is then sent to the President to sign and become law.
The Senate version exempts small farmers that gross under half a million from federal regulations. Of course the feds can't tell the states not to regulate their farmers so theoretically each state could pass its own regulations on farmers smaller than the half a million federal limit.
