This petition needs one million signatures.
It begins:
Targeting: The President of the United States, The U.S. Senate, and The U.S. House of Representatives
Started by: Leslie Goldman
To leave the Fate of the Future of Real Food Safety to the decision making capacity of 100 men and women U.S. Senators, 435 House members and Food Safety Policy Makers who may never have shopped their local Farmers' Market or delighted in the taste of butter from contented cows would be an error in judgement. To imagine that Washington legislators, who may never have delighted in leafy greens fresh picked that morning, contamination free, are suited to make the call on what we who sing "America The Beautiful" will eat tomorrow is faulty logic. Food is ours. All of ours. It is time to Chew on Food Safety. A National Conversation has begun. Let all of us, GE Lovers, Organic food Lovers, Conventional Food Growers, sit down and enter into an honest and honoring Dialogue on Science, Ethics, and Food.

FROM WATCH FOR THE HAIL MARY PASS
ISSUED SUNDAY MORNING
DECEMBER 19
HERE ON THE PLANT YOUR DREAM BLOG
#S-510 Update: Watch for the Hail Mary Pass!!!!!
http://curezone.com/blogs/fm.asp?i=1739913
Saturday update December 18, 2010:
Asked about the status of
#S-510 FDA Food Safety Modernization Act.
during a morning press conference covered by C-Span,
Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) said:
"The good news is it is not dead,
the conversation is still alive on the floor of the Senate today."
Durbin said he is hopeful the measure can be included in
"the wrap up" of the lame duck session.
Those who want to see
the passage of #S-510, no matter what,
are seeking a Hail Mary Pass.
For those not familiar with football, we are talking about
a long pass down field with little time on the clock
that ends up winning the game. The clock is ticking.
For those on defense calling for less FDA and government
interference where unwarranted
and the birthright to have food be our medicine,
this is more about food freedom
than a limited definition
of Food Safety. Thousands upon thousands,
unreported in the mainstream press,
have formed a coalition against #S-510
crossing all party, religious, and philosophical lines.
We've monitored the current assault of Food Safety Bills.
They do more harm that good if the pass succeeds.
#S-510 is a new beginning.
All who want Food Freedom stand together.
Truly we want one united prayer of thanks.
"America the Beautiful" is truly rising up again.

SENATE REPUBLICANS JOIN DEMOCRATS TO PASS FOOD “SAFETY” BILL
By Sarah Foster
December 20, 2010
NewsWithViews.com
The Democrats are at it again, this time under the cover of Sunday Night.
The infamous food “safety” bill that health freedom activists and their allies assumed was out for the session, has come blazing back to life from its near-death state late Sunday, thanks to a sell-out by Senate Republicans.
That’s right. S. 510, the Food Safety Modernization Act was stuck into a shell bill and passed unanimously just before the Senate adjourned for the day.
As reported by the Washington Post: “After a weekend of negotiations, tense strategy sessions and several premature predictions about the bill's demise, [newly re-elected and confident] Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid, D-Nev., reached a deal with Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., that the GOP would not filibuster. [added]

This article did not cover the whole story: #S510 No More: The "food safety" language replaces the Cash for Clunkers language in the amended version of HR 2751 which was sent over to the House. Kudos to @jamiedupree for reporting that first.
This goes to the House and is expected to be voted on Tues. Recommend calling and faxing and giving your Reps H—L. Might also recommend that the revenue floor in the Tester amendment language be amended from $500,000 to at least $1,000,000.

In Sunday-evening surprise, Senate unanimously passes food safety bill
By Alexander Bolton - 12/19/10 07:55 PM ET
The Senate unexpectedly approved food safety legislation by unanimous consent Sunday evening, rescuing a bill that floated in limbo for weeks because of a clerical error.
The Senate passed the Food Safety and Modernization Act on Nov. 30 by a vote of 73-25. But the bill was later invalidated by a technical objection because it was a revenue-raising measure that did not originate in the House — Senate staff had failed to substitute the food safety language into a House-originated bill.
A coalition of groups supporting the bill sent a letter Sunday to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) calling for action on food safety.
“Our organizations are writing to support attaching S. 510, the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act, to the Senate's proposed short-term continuing resolution,” the groups wrote. “Strong food-safety legislation will reduce the risk of contamination and provide FDA with the resources and authorities the agency needs to help make prevention the focus of our food safety strategies.”
The American Public Health Association, the Center for Science in the Public Interest, Consumer Federation of America, Consumers Union and other groups signed the letter.
Democrats first attempted to attach the food safety bill to the two-and-a-half-month spending measure but Republicans balked because they wanted to keep that measure clean, according to Senate aides.
Republicans, however, later agreed to pass it by unanimous consent.
Reid announced he would send the legislation — this time properly attached to a House-originated measure — back to the lower chamber for final approval.
“Our food safety system has not been updated in almost a century. Families in Nevada and across America should never have to worry about whether the food they put on their table is safe," Reid said in a statement. "This is a common-sense issue with broad bipartisan support.
"Tonight we unanimously passed a measure to improve on our current food safety system by giving the FDA the resources it needs to keep up with advances in food production and marketing, without unduly burdening farmers and food producers,” he said.
The legislation is a high priority for Reid and Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee Chairman Tom Harkin (D-Iowa).
Reid’s staff earlier in the day had told a coalition of groups supporting the legislation that it had a chance of passing but the prospects appeared to dim as Sunday wore on. The swift approval by unanimous consent caught some aides and lobbyists working on it by surprise.
Sen. Tom Coburn, the outspoken conservative Republican from Oklahoma, had been blocking the legislation. He lifted his objection at the final moment.

Washington can not believe its ears!!!
Sounds deafen Lobbyists who had spent billions and billions
imagining they could buy stables of men and women
they thought that they had voted into office.
This can never be the case in America the Beautiful!
Our legislators--all of them--are well intended
and know truly in their hearts
America The Beautiful.
The sight is amazing!
Our Honored President is inspired
by fresh and local organic foods that Our First Lady
serves him from the White House
organic garden. He declares to the Nation
he is a Beet Keeper in this
the Enchanted Garden Era.
1000 years of peace start now.
Nations around the world honor
our president who was given
a nobel peace prize.
Birds Twitter!
Sustainability again rules the land.
It is one beet. Many Pulses
evermore.
Soldiers come home.
We honor our returning veterans
and send them back to school
to relearn how to grow food in
their own backyards.
A new middle class in America
is reborn. Children receive all the
plant based education they need,
and exude virtue that inspires
mothers, dads,
grandma and grandpa.
Young folks adopt elders.
A happy day returns as
farmers wake up
as Senators and all elected
say, "Happiness is organic."
The later verses
of "America the beautiful" sing out
throughout the Land:
*O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain...
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
Till selfish gain no longer stain
The banner of the free!
America! America!
God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness
And every gain divine!
O beautiful for patriot dream
...beyond the years
...alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears!
America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
Till nobler men keep once again
Thy whiter jubilee!
