Subject: House and Senate bills to kill all organic farms (FAST track bills in 2 weeks)

Food Safety Modernization Act (HR 875): Criminalization of Organic Farms

Bills are:

House H.R. 875

http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h111-875

Senate  S 425

http://www..govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=s111-425

IF YOU LIKE A GARDEN OR BUY ORGANIC FOOD YOU BETTER GET ON THAT PHONE TO YOUR CONGRESS CRITTERS  N O W !

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

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.

THIS IS DICTATORSHIP in any way you look at it.

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

(Really makes it sound like the feds are trying protect us. LIES )
