TWO Action Items: New Farm- Food-Freedom Bill & Hemp

SB47 Farm Food Freedom Bill TODAY (Friday)

There is a new farm food freedom bill (read it here, formerly a raw milk bill) in front of the Senate this FRIDAY 1/27/12. It will get a first reading and possibly a vote. Please read the bill. If you support it, then call your Senator 800-372-7181 asap and request a yes vote on SB47.

Even if you don't get this email till later in the day, please call and voice your opinion. This bill is moving more quickly than expected and we want our Senators to know our thoughts on this game-changing bill. Thank you!

Be prepared: in the next couple of weeks, you'll be asked to call your House representatives on the same bill!
