Guest guest Posted July 10, 2005 Report Share Posted July 10, 2005 URGENT CODEX MESSAGE from Len Horowitz to all networks Dear Friends and Colleagues: The Globalists are pulling a fast one (again.) They've put the CODEX standardization issue into the CAFTA (Central American Free Trade Agreement). Without your political action NOW, we will lose what we have been fighting for for the last ten years...YOUR FREEDOM TO ACCESS OUR CREATOR'S NATURAL BOUNTY FOR HEALTHCARE AND HEALING!!! Link to: http://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?reads009 Here is a summary quote from John Hammel in Washington: " The Sanitary Phytosanitary Measures Agreement (SPS). The SPS Agreement expressly calls for countries to harmonize their domestic food safety standards to restrictive Codex standards (including those which stand to be ratified in July at Codex for vitamins and minerals.) While Codex will only be ratifying a framework on nutrient risk assessment, (their intent being to fill in the blanks on allowable potencies after the fact), we see the writing on the wall in terms of what those limits could be. " Only the German Federal Institute of Risk Assessment has done the full extrapolation called for by Codex, and their projected " Maximum Safe Permitted Levels " include just 225 mg for vitamin C, 5 mcg for Vitamin D, 15 mg for vitamin E and just 5.4 mg for Vitamin B-6. (See table at www.alliance-natural-health.org/_docs/ANHWebsiteDoc_145.doc " Even though today's Washington Post contains an article which states that CAFTA is in political trouble, we can't assume anything from that. Bush is pulling out all the stops to try to buy votes via slinging around political pork projects in an effort to try to entice fence sitters, and the US Chamber of Commerce has announced that they've gone on the warpath and that they'll be threatening to drive noncompliant members of Congress under in the next election- we we need to join forces with those other lobbying forces opposed to CAFTA because too much is at stake to ever take a chance on something this important. " For a sample PETITION LETTER THAT YOU SHOULD IMMEDIATELY SEND TO YOUR CONGRESSIONAL REPS LINK TO: http://www.thenhf.com/newsflash_49.htm Much love in urgency, Len Horowitz I can not express how urgent and vital stopping CAFTA is to protect our access to vitamins and supplements since CODEX has been adopted to say nothing about protecting American Sovreignty... Please email, call, fax, snail-mail - all of the above- and equally important: help spread the word! Time is limited, CAFTA is going to the Senate this week and has already been approved by the House... To find who your elected officials are you can use: http://www.congress.org/ ONLY ONE WEEK TO ACT. CONTACT YOUR REPRESENTATIVES. URGE THEM TO VOTE AGAINST CAFTA NOW. YOUR LETTERS WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE. THE VOTING IN THE HOUSE WILL BE CLOSE. WE HAVE ONE WEEK TO FLOOD THEIR OFFICES WITH CAFTA OPPOSITION LETTERS. PLEASE JOIN IN THIS EFFORT AND CONTACT YOUR REPRESENTATIVES. Contact any member of the House of Representatives via http://www.house.gov/writerep/ For persons who do not have Internet access you may contact the House of Representatives switchboard at 1 (202) 224-3121. This will direct you to your representative as long as you have your full zip code, including the additional four digits that the post office places on the end, which indicates the representative district. Sample Petition Opposition Letter as follows: CAFTA Letter The Honorable (Congressperson Full Name) Address Address Re: CAFTA VOTE - URGENT Dear Representative (Last Name): I am writing to urge you to vote against the Central American Free Trade Act (CAFTA). While you and your colleagues may believe that CAFTA will promote regional trade, I do not support CAFTA because it contains (in Section 6) stipulations that would require the United States, as a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO), to revise our food laws and regulations, based on decisions made by another WTO tribunal, the Codex Alimentarius (International Food Code) Commission, or Codex. The WTO recognizes Codex standards as a source of international regulation for WTO members. The WTO can and has sanctioned nations for not following Codex guidelines. The passage of CAFTA would force the " harmonization " of our dietary-supplement laws and regulations to international standards, as established by the supranational Codex Commission. Doing so would drastically infringe on the quality of dietary supplements and access to supplements that people like me are used to. The passage of CAFTA could effectively override the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994. CAFTA would devastate our health freedom of choice, destroy thousands of small businesses in the health foods and dietary supplement fields, and negatively impact the 150 million regular consumers of dietary supplements like myself. Any treaty that leads to the banning of thousands of safe products cannot be described as " free trade. " There are better ways to globalize. If this cannot be done without threatening my basic right to have access to nutritional choices, then we should scrap CAFTA and start over. I appreciate your consideration of my views and look forward to knowing what your position is on this legislation. Sincerely, ____________________________ P.O.
