>Freedom (AAHF) is leading a campaign to reform the Food and Drug

>Administration (FDA). We ask you to join with us in signing the

>Science and Mission at Risk was released by the FDA. In this

>report, the agency admitted that it is failing in its mission and in

>particular is unable to keep up with scientific advances.

>http://reformFDA. org/

>The FDA itself now admits that Americans are suffering and dying

>because the FDA does not have the scientific expertise to ascertain

>if new drugs are safe or effective or to evaluate scientific claims.

>Meanwhile the FDA censors the communication of scientific

>information and opposes or bans cheaper and often more effective

>natural remedies in a misguided effort to maintain an FDA-approved

>drug monopoly.

>Some members of Congress think that giving the FDA more money will

>solve these problems. But the FDA report itself admits that the

>agency's scientific ineptitude is not solely due to a lack of money.

>Rather than give the failed FDA more money, Congress should demand a

>total reform and restructuring.

>A reformed FDA should liberate consumers from the chains of archaic

>medical restrictions that cause millions of Americans to needlessly

>suffer and die each year. It should support, not censor and hold

>back, science and innovation.

>This is not a partisan, political issue. All of us need to come

>together to reform the FDA and to change today's broken system.

>To persuade Congress to address this monumental problem, a Petition

>to Reform the FDA has been drafted. Your signature is vital. We must

>collect such a large number of names on the Petition that it compels

>Congressional action. We will hand deliver the Petition to

>Congressional leaders and urge them to enact comprehensive FDA reform.
