Guest guest Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 Is there a link to the amendment? I always read any congressional shenanigans myself before writing my congress-critters. F. Group, Help STOP Senator Durbin – Don't let him LIMIT your RIGHTS to dietary supplements! Long-time dietary supplement industry enemy Senator Dick Durbin from Illinois is at it again. This time he has secretly introduced the Durbin Amendment, which imposes tremendous administrative burdens on both dietary supplement makers and the FDA. This appears to be part of Durbin's never-ending campaign to harass and ultimately take away our access to dietary supplements altogether. Don't Let him do it!! Call and ask the switchboard to direct you to your senator's office. Tell your senators to OPPOSE Durbin Amendment. OR go to the following link: http://www.anh-usa.org/disastrous-durbin-anti-supplement-amendment-just-offered-help-stop-it/? This is URGENT, as the Senate votes on this amendment tomorrow, Thursday, May 24, 2012 at 2:00pm.

Guest guest Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 YES! Durbin failed! I second your HOORAY! His Amendment has been defeated. The US Senate agreed and STOPPED it after Senator Tom Harkin made a motion to table the Durbin amendment by a ending vote of 77-20. Thanks to all the organizations working endlessly to STOP this! Thanks, to all of you, too, that helped. Sadly, Senator Rand 's proposed Amendment that would have stopped the FDA from bullying farmers and abusing its power while restoring freedom of health speech by stopping the FDA from censoring the truthful health claims of dietary supplements was defeated. To read any Amendment go to the USA Library of Congress (www.loc.gov). All Amendments (Bills, Resolutions) are at THOMAS (www.thomas.gov) along with any changes.
