The hotly-debated S.1082 legislation sponsored by Sen. Kennedy has now been renamed the Enhancing Drug Safety and Innovation Act of 2007, reports Brenna Hill of the Health Freedom Foundation and American Association (www.HealthFreedom.net). The bill is being hotly debated and has been delayed by two days due to the introduction of various amendments. The health freedom community is continuing its grassroots efforts to rally public support for defeating the bill, even while some lawmakers such as Sen. Byron Dorgan are proposing much-needed amendments that would vastly improve it.
Health freedom author and nutritional supplement formulator Byron Richards has spearheaded much of the commentary on this bill, and support for defeating the bill has come from many camps in the health freedom movement, including the Life Extension Foundation (www.LEF.org), raw foods pioneer Dr. Gabriel Cousens (www.TreeofLife.nu), John Hammel's International Advocate for Health Freedom (www.nocodexgenocide.com), the National Health Federation (www.TheNFH.com) and many others. Even Freedom to Fascism producer Aaron Russo (www.freedomtofascism.com) is closely monitoring this situation and sending health freedom email updates to his subscribers.
Hundreds of thousands of comments and complaints have already been received by U.S. lawmakers concerning this bill. The latest update of legislative maneuvers is provided by Byron Richards in an article reprinted here with permission from www.NewsWithViews.com
Of special interest is the development of a new amendment that would end the U.S. pharmaceutical monopoly and allow Americans to purchase prescription drugs from other countries. This single amendment, which would bring free trade to medications and save American citizens, corporations, cities and states billions of dollars in reduced pricing for prescription drugs, has Big Pharma and their legislative lapdogs circling the wagons, hoping to pass this bill quickly before any other "bright ideas" threaten Big Pharma's stanglehold on organized medicine.
What's at stake here is nothing less than the future of our nation. Because if we cannot end this medical monopoly and radically reform the FDA, Big Pharma will bankrupt our national economy and leave America broke, diseased and medicated from the cradle to the grave.
Here's the update as reported by Richards:
Fight Erupts on Senate floor: Senators Bribed by Big Pharma vs. Senators not Bought OffBy Byron Richards, CCN
As the Senate continues to debate the Big Pharma-friendly sweeping reform of the FDA a new problem for Big Pharma's prize Senators has erupted and quickly turned into confrontation on the floor of the Senate. At stake is at least 10 billion dollars per year in exorbitant Big Pharma profits. In one corner is Big Pharma-puppet Orrin Hatch (R-UT), representing the Kennedy/Enzi drug cartel. In the other corner is a majority of Senators lead by Byron Dorgan (D-ND).
