Demand Stronger Food Safety Laws

Every year, 76 million Americans are sickened and 325,000 are hospitalized from consuming contaminated food — and 5,000 of these people die, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Our food safety law clearly is not up to the task. The House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed bipartisan food safety reform legislation in July 2009 that would update the law and strengthen the system: Now the Senate must act. Our Senators have the opportunity to change course and help protect children, families, senior citizens and all others from foodborne illness. For today’s Daily Action, speak up for your health! Tell your Senators it is time to pass strong food safety legislation now! im taking action With Love & Bright Blessings “Help Save Our Mother Earth” http://blog.myspace.com/126535958 http://myspace.com/126535958 http://twitter.com/ICareDoYou
