URGENT!! SENATE needs to be contacted re: CAFTA/Codex

[Guest guest]

Although the CAFTA bill squeaked through the Senate last week, the bill before

the House this week is different.

 

They have added, of all insulting and aggregious things, COMPLIANCE WITH CODEX

into the bill in the House version. If we are so unfortunate as to have this

bill pass in the House too, it will now have to go to committee to work out the

differences in the bills.

 

ONE: Call or email your Representative and tell them not to approve CAFTA,

 

TWO: Then PLEASE, call or email your senators and ask them to work on removing

the CODEX compliance clause from CAFTA in committee. Actually, the whole thing

getting stuck in committee forever would be my first choice, but if that's not

an option, then let's at least get CODEX out of there and fight that issue on

it's on de-merits.

CAFTA is a bad deal all around, for human beings, a great deal for

multi-national corporations, and now they have made it worse, if that's

possible, by including CODEX in it!!!

 

Tell your Representative to say NO! to CAFTA and CODEX!!

Dear Friend,

 

A decade ago, the U.S. Congress traded away our economic future with back-room

deals and passed the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Since then

over 700,000 jobs have been lost in the U.S. and 8 million more people in Mexico

are living in poverty. The proposed Central America Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA)

will extend this nightmare to 6 more nations. To boot, they have 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!!!

 

In the Senate, CAFTA passed in a very close 54-45 vote on June 30th. WE HAVE NOT

LOST! This was the closest Senate vote on a trade pact since NAFTA. The bill

still has to pass the House, where opposition to CAFTA is much stronger. We have

always known that we will have to defeat CAFTA in the House, not the Senate.

 

CAFTA came out of the House Ways and Means Committee on Thursday, in a 24-11

vote. The House is expected to vote on

CAFTA sometime after the week-long 4th of July recess. Representatives should be

in their districts until Congress

begins again on July 11th. Please take some time during the next week to educate

your representatives about what you think about

CAFTA! Now is the time to act!
