(NaturalNews) In a last-ditch effort to resurrect S.510, the Food Safety Modernization Act, House Democrats are effectively hiding approval of the bill inside another bill -- HR 3082, an appropriations bill meant to fund the Department of Veterans Affairs.
Health freedom attorney Ralph Fucetola has been monitoring this situation closely and warns that the House could "sneak" approval for S.510 through as early as tomorrow (Thursday).
The John Birch Society website reports that HR 3082 is "a complicated affair," encompassing, "...more money for Obama's 'Race to the Top,' for NASA, the Veterans Administration, increased military pay and for military programs that pay compensation for private citizens in Iraq and Afghanistan, for fighting terrorism in Yemen and for helping the Israelis anti-rocket defense shield. plus the funding of many other government agencies and programs."

Because passage of HR 3082 may be imminent, thereby allowing the Senate to re-vote on the bill very quickly, Fucetola urges all health freedom advocates to take the following urgent action:
Take Action NOW for each member of your household to tell your Representatives that you STONGLY OPPOSE adopting the language of S. 510 in this or any other amendment or bill:

"I am calling to strongly opposed adopting the language of S. 510, the so-called
Food Safety Modernization Act. This language is currently attached to 'CR/Food Safety House Amendment to the Senate Amendment to H.R. 3082 - Full-Year Continuing Appropriations Act, 2011/FDA Food Safety Modernization Act'. I urge Representative [name] in the strongest possible terms to vote against this amendment and to oppose this language in any bill or amendment."
The phone lines may be busy. Keep trying. This is literally an 11th hour attempt by Big Agribiz to control every bite you eat, and make sure it is to their liking, not yours.
