HR 875, also known as the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009, was
introduced by Rosa Delauro - a democratic party member of the United States
House of Representatives from Connecticut - in February of 2009. The title
of HR 875, The Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009, sounds innocuous

story.
HR 875 as it is written today, could very well mean the end of the vibrant
and growing local foods movement. Yes - if it passes - it could herald the
death of farmers markets, most CSAs, farmstands and even small family-run
farms altogether.
