| The food safety bill is expected to hit the Senate floor NEXT WEEK. The House bill and the current Senate version of the bill are pretty good on closing some important loopholes to ensure food safety BUT they are still detrimental to small, sustainable farms. Fortunately, Sen. Jon Tester is an organic farmer himself, so he really gets it. He's proposed an amendment that would put in place some much needed fixes to the bill.
We've got only a few days left to convince each Senator to support the Tester amendment. Given that, CREDO has set up a fax action alert (which is quite possibly the best way to reach your Senator quickly & effectively). Even if you've already called or emailed, please use CREDO's action alert to send a fax. Then email the fax link to your friends and family. Tweet it on Twitter! Post it on Facebook!
Take action here. |
