Does anyone who's reading this know the status of the Monsanto bill?

Backyard gardening and organic foods are being threatened in the U.S.  
by Mansanto.

Within a week this frightening bill goes before congress.

Hopefully it isn't too late to do something at the grassroots level  
to prevent this?

Subject: The "Monsanto Bill"
US House and Senate are about (in a week and a half) to vote on bill  
that will OUTLAW ORGANIC FARMING (bill HR 875). There is an enormous  
rush to get this into law within the next 2 weeks before people  
realize what is happening.

Main backer and lobbyist is (guess who) Monsanto – chemical and  
genetic engineering giant corporation. This bill will require organic  
farms to use specific fertilizers and poisonous insect sprays  
dictated by the newly formed agency to "make sure there is no danger  
to the public food supply". This will include backyard gardens that  
grow food only for a family and not for sales.

If this passes then NO more heirloom clean seeds but only Monsanto  
genetically altered seeds that are now showing up with unexpected  
diseases in humans.

There is a video on the subject.

The name on this outrageous food plan is Food Safety Modernization  
Act of 2009 (bill HR 875).

THIS IS REAL, FOLKS! PASS THIS ALONG TO ALL CONCERNED ON YOUR MAILING  
LISTS & CALL YOUR SENATE REPRESENTETIVES TODAY! Get on that phone and  
burn up the wires. Get anyone else you can to do the same thing. The  
House and Senate WILL pass this if they are not massively threatened  
with loss of their position.... They only fear your voice and your vote.

The best thing to do is go to www.house.gov/writerep all you have to  
do is put in your zip and it will give you your congressperson and  
how to get in touch with them.  When you call their office someone  
will answer the phone, just tell them (politely) that you are calling  
to express your views on HR 875.  Tell them your views, they'll take  
your name and address and pass your comments along to the  
congressperson.  The following linkhttp://www.senate.gov/general/ 
contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm is a list of the U.S. senators  
and their contact info.
