Lame Duck Congress Threatening To Pass Anti-Supplement Bill

Lame Duck Congress Threatening

To Pass Anti-Supplement Bill

It is a regrettable fact that our

legal-political system is so often characterized by deception and ambush.

During the heated political campaigns prior to

November 7, members of Congress would not dare pass a bill that would interfere

with consumers' free access to dietary supplements.

Now that the election is over, there is an

attempt to attach a new law onto an existing bill that would give the FDA

greater powers to remove dietary supplements from the marketplace and put a

heavy burden on smaller dietary supplement companies.

This ominous Senate Bill-S.3546-is deceptively

titled Dietary Supplement and Non-Prescription Drug Consumer Protection Act. The

charade behind this title is that it would largely function to protect large

pharmaceutical companies against the low cost competition they are encountering

from makers of natural alternatives to their toxic drugs.

As many of you know, this year's election was

one of the closest on record. If the re-elected members of Congress know how

outraged citizens will be if S.3546 is passed, it will almost certainly be

killed.

To conveniently inform your members of Congress

to vote NO on S.3546 and any House companion bill, just click on the " take

action now " button below.

Please know that members of Congress now prefer

email as the most efficient way to hear from their constituents. Life Extension

has set up a super-convenient email network that enables consumers to readily

identify their members of Congress and then send them prepared messages urging

them to vote NO on S.3546.
