The Battle for Our Food Freedom Isn't Over Yet!
Politicians are maneuvering and manipulating to the last moment to pass S 510...
Here's the latest update from this morning. We spoke with
Sen. Coburn's Office: "As far as we know there may be an attempt to insert the Senate bill language [S. 510] into a "must pass" bill (such as a budget bill in the House) and send that back to the Senate... if it is returned as as a stand-alone bill, there is probably not enough time to debate and pass it this session, but if it is part of another, already scheduled bill, we don't know what will happen."

Natural Solutions Foundation Trustees: "What can we do to support Sen. Coburn's attempts to kill S. 510?

Sen. Coburn's Office: Public pressure! Keep up the pressure!

Rep. Ron Paul's office: "We've heard what is likely to happen is that the lame-duck House would take up the Senate bill [S. 510] and slap an HR number on it somehow, and pass it as a House bill, sending it to the Senate as a stand alone bill..."

Natural Solutions Foundation Trustees: "What can we do to help kill S. 510?

Rep. Paul's Office: Public pressure! Keep up the pressure!

Both offices tell us that the only thing that will prevent this bill from final passage is massive public outcry... we must continue to Push Back!

Summary of the Possible Outcomes for S. 510 and Food Freedom:

1. Senate Has Not Reported S510 Out To House Yet!
IT IS POSSIBLE THAT IT COULD DIE AT THIS STAGE (good)

2. S510, Section 107 is unconstitutional (only the House can raise revenue) so if S. 510 is reported out to the House it can

2a. "Blue Flag" S510 and send it back to the Senate or
2b. The House can defeat S510 (good)
2c. The House can pass S510 as sent to it (bad)
2d. The House could attach S510's language to another bill number or another bill and pass it (bad), then send it back to the Senate where

2d.1. The Senate could defeat the new bill with the new number (good) or

2.d.2. The Senate could pass the new bill with the new number (tragically bad).

3. If the House Blue Flags S510, it goes back to the Senate where
3a. The Senate could defeat S510 (good) or
3b. The Senate could run out of time to pass an amended S510 (good) or
3c. The Senate could pass S510 after the amendment to remove Sec. 107 (bad).

It would then be sent back to the House again where -

4.a The House could defeat it (good) or
3.b The House could pass it (tragically bad)

Our Friends In The House AND the Senate Tell Us It is Time to Hammer Both the House and the Senate Really, Really Hard.



"Mighty Hammer Down!"

Back in the 60's there was a freedom song that said, "If I had a hammer, I'd hammer in the morning, I'd hammer in the evening, all over this land. I'd hammer out justice, I'd hammer out freedom, I'd hammer out love between my brothers and my sisters all, all over this land!"



Now, as then, we DO have a hammer. It is the hammer of Political Acitivism and you can swing it right here, http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/56 ... n_KEY=5303, - please act right now, to pound home the nails in the coffin of the Food Fascism Bill.
