Obamacare For The Food Industry

As the lame duck session cranks up in Washington, we have to stand and fight again.  On Wednesday, there will be a cloture vote on Senate bill S.510.  For those of you not familiar with this nightmare of a bill, TPN member Eve Stephens has a summary of it here, on Tea Party Nation.

S. 510 is basically Obamacare for the food industry.  It will create 17,000 new bureaucrats, who's job is going to be to harass small farmers.  It will create huge regulatory burdens for small family farms and even for those who want to grown their own food.  This will choke out small farms.  For those who like to buy their own healthy food, forget it.  It will no longer be available.

Call your Senators in the morning and ask them to vote against cloture and let's kill this new attempt by the Obama/Pelosi/Reid axis of fiscal evil to control even more of our lives.
