Health Freedom Protection Act, H.R. 2117 Introduced In House: Help Support This Bill
http://healthtruthrevealed.com/full-page.php?id=12071313405&&page=article
Representative Ron Paul (along with Representatives Rosco Bartlett, Dan Burton, John Duncan, and Christopher Shays) has reintroduced the Health Freedom Protection Act, H.R. 2117. This is a true health-freedom bill that the NHF has lobbied for, and it deserves the support of the health-freedom community.
For years, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) have continued to censor and engage in heavy-handed attempts to restrict access to supplements and educational information for Americans. This bill would stop the FDA from censoring truthful claims about the curative, mitigative, or preventative effects of dietary supplements.
A grass-roots advocacy letter-writing campaign is needed to help the NHF's lobbying efforts to educate Congressional members on the need for this legislation. The NHF will once again be seeking to have a companion bill introduced in the Senate. As of May 2, 2007, the bill has been referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
For more information you can visit the NHF webpage http://www.thenhf.com/government_affairs_federal.html to send letters to your Congresspersons, and download this bill.
As the oldest and best-respected health-freedom group on Capitol Hill, the NHF continues to be the credible source of objective assessment, and proactive actions on Congressional legislation and FDA matters impacting upon our freedom-of-health choices and our access to dietary supplements and nutritional foods.
