Subject: FW: Organic Food
Threatened Now by Monsanto bill in Congress - HR 875 - What it is & What to
do about it
We need to stop Big Ag from destroying the organic food act.
Please take time to call it just takes a minute. Copy and paste the URLs if they will not connect.
Please forward we need a grass roots response to this assault on our food supply.
Thanks,
“I'd put my money on solar energy… I hope we don't have to wait 'til oil and coal run out before we tackle that.”
—Thomas Edison, in conversation with Henry Ford and Harvey Firestone, March 1931
The 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.
The main backer and lobbyist of this bill is (guess who) Monsanto,
the giant Chemical and Genetic Engineering corporation.
This bill will require organic farms to use specific fertilizers and poisonous insect sprays
dictated by a newly formed agency to “make sure there is no danger to the public food supply”.
This will INCLUDE all backyard gardens and “victory gardens” that grow food
only for family’s, schools, churches, which is
not for sale!
If this passes then there will be NO more heirloom clean seeds
but only Monsanto genetically altered seeds that are
now showing up causing unexpected diseases in humans.
There is a video on the subject:

And another one:

The name on this outrageous food plan is Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009
(bill HR 875).
THIS IS REAL, FOLKS!
PLEASE be concerned enough to PASS this along to those on your email lists;
Yes, everyone is careful about email impressions -- but this is that important.
CONTACTING YOUR SENATOR + YOUR HOUSE REPRESENTATIVE RIGHT AWAY WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
Please take just a few minutes to get on the phone à together, we can make an impact.
Let’s burn up the wires and be heard.
Don’t let BIG AGRICULTURE engineer your family’s food.
Get anyone else you possibly 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.
Don’t let a “Big Ag” lobbyist buy your Senator or Congressperson.
Go to this link to find your SENATOR, click on the Web Form link,
and fill in the Contact Me page to submit your request:
http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm
A quick way to find your HOUSE REPRESENTATIVE is go to www.house.gov/writerep
All you have to do is put in your zip code 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 your congressperson.
