opposing S.1082 The FDA 'Revitalization' Act of 2007--a mouse away

[Guest guest]

Notice the catchy names they give these acts that serve to strip us of all freedom--always the opposite of what they actually propose... Please check messages below this one---it appears the deadline has been moved to May 29---thanks be!! BUT---this doesn't mean we don't act now---but gives us more time to get the messages around---WE MUST STOP THIS NEFARIOUS ACT or we are dead---literally!!! ************************************** "But you must remember, my fellow-citizens, that eternal vigilance by the people is the price of liberty, and that you must pay the price if you wish to secure the blessing. It behooves you,

therefore, to be watchful in your States as well as in the Federal Government." -- Andrew Jackson, Farewell Address, March 4, 1837 "The battle, sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave." -- Patrick Henry "God grants liberty only to those who love it, and are always ready to guard and defend it." -- Daniel Webster (1834) - IAHF.COM IAHF LIST: URGENT!

click you can send a form letter instantly to your Senators and Congressman opposing S.1082 The FDA Revitalization Act of 2007 which is scheduled to go to the Senate floor for a vote on Monday, April 30th. (THATS JUST 3 DAYS FROM NOW SO PLEASE ALERT EVERYONE YOU KNOW!) (The Senate bill will probably then also rushed to the Floor of the House shortly thereafter a few days or weeks later so we must continue to be vigilant past monday.) This treacherous 262 page bill which supposedly "protects us" from dangerous drugs actually does the OPPOSITE and has been ably exposed by Byron Richards, author of Fight For Your Health- Exposing the FDA's Betrayal of America in conjunction with attorney Jonathan Emord who is working with us in an effort to kill it. Outrageously, the bill would create an actual DRUG COMPANY inside the FDA! This Drug Company would be called the "Reagan-Udall Foundation for the Food and Drug Administration" and if we allow this monster to be created inside the gates of the FDA, all bets are OFF, the Agency will work OVERTIME to protect its OWN PATENTED TOXIC CRAP from ALL UNWANTED COMPETITION! This bill gives the FDA sweeping new power to attack safe dietary supplements (read Byron's article for details.) The bill renews the Prescription Drug User Fee Act which had expired, and Kennedy has set up a payola scam akin to business owners paying protection money to the

mafia whereby drug companies wanting faster approval on their products can pay the FDA which will receive $380 Million or more than 50% of their budget for new drug approvals from the industry they're supposedly "regulating." Senator Grassley has expressed grave reservations about this bill, wanting to know why a special center can't be set up inside FDA to monitor the dangers of drugs already on the market but his alternative bills won't make it to the floor because Kennedy controls the committee.

this Dear Zoe Whitefeather, The American Association for Health Freedom is pleased to announce a small victory. The FDA has moved the deadline from April 30, 2007 to May 29, 2007 for public comments to the FDA document 2006D-0480 - Draft Guidance for Industry on Complementary and Alternative Medicine Products and Their Regulation by the Food and Drug Administration. [Visit our website for more information. ] This extension provides us time to execute the most effective strategy, which is to prepare

and deliver a reasoned, specific and technically accurate response that covers the law and case history that delineates the FDA’s role, power and authority in these areas. We have been talking with many members of Congress about the FDA CAM Regulation Guidance and they’re listening. Pressure has been exerted on the FDA from organized groups in the community and from Congress. Unfortunately writing directly to the unelected bureaucrats at the FDA has little impact, even if a million citizens write. Writing to your elected

officials, as our earlier alert suggested, has had an impact and we’ve sent thousands of letters to the Hill. We love the fact that the community is so passionate and wants to be involved. Unfortunately we have seen a lot misinformation traveling the Internet about the “dangers” of the FDA CAM Regulation Guidance. The sky is NOT falling. Whether the deadline is April 30th, May 29th, July 31st or beyond, this guidance document alone does not change the laws and regulations of: functional foods, dietary supplements, medical devices and therapies, religious practices, or practitioners. We are very concerned that the FDA is over-reaching in the CAM guidance. With the new extension date of May 29, 2007, we now have the time to properly respond to the guidance and provide you, Congress, and the FDA with the specifics of what those problems are and how the guidance should be changed. Our strategy is built on 15 YEARS of experience advocating health freedom and working with our legal and public policy experts (who are leaders in their fields). Our plan is based on a strategic, credible, and logical review of the document. Our mission is to provide the community with reliable, accurate information and not to raise panic. As one of our board members is fond of saying “we don’t work to be ‘busy’ but work to be ‘effective’.” For perspective, John Weeks of the Integrator Blog has a very good article where he interviews many members of the health freedom community as well as the FDA. I highly recommend you read this article for more information. Our general counsel, Mr. Michael Ruggio, is preparing our strategy and comments to the FDA which we believe is the strongest course of action that AAHF can take. Our lobbyist Dr. William Duncan continues to execute our public policy work with Congress, FDA, the Centers for Disease Control, and other government agencies. Our plan is to continually educate our members and others who are interested in our work and at the same time, reassure everyone through direct, first-hand information about what is happening on Capital Hill. Please feel free to post and forward this message. Thank you.

Love, Doc Doc Shillington 727-447-5282 Doc@AcademyOfNatura lHealing. com - DocShillington@ Knology.net Friday, April 27, 2007 3:22 PM Our wonderful FDA is trying to do it again! Doc, I was at a meeting last night where I learned that our wonderful FDA is trying to take control of our supplements by regulating them so bad that not even health food stores would carry them any more. We would have to go through a health professional to get it! If we even use carrot juice as part of our healing, it would be illegal for us to use it! Water used to treat dehydration would be regulated. To understand more what they are trying to do, check this link out-- www.worldnetdaily. com/new/article. asp?ARTICLEID= 55370. Public comments are being taken until April 30 about this. If we can get enough people making comments, we may be able to stop this and retain our freedom to buy supplements as we wish! I hope that you would be willing to post this to the list since it is about our freedom to use herbs, vitamins and food as we wish. Even growing herbs in a

garden could be considered a criminal act! I am not liking this at all. Right now the health professional can be a naturopath, but what's to stop them from eventually banning naturopaths from prescribing for us and requiring that only medicos can prescribe for us? Again, I hope you will post this to the list--I want to see this stopped! Becky
