Campaign Unavailable We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Center for Science in the Public Interest.The short explanation of this alert was: The U.S. Senate will consider the National Uniformity for Food Act of 2005, H.R. 4167, which passed in the U.S. House of Representatives on March 8. That Act would nullify more than 200 state and local food-safety and labeling requirements, including critical laws like shellfish safety, California’s Proposition 65, and milk safety. (Prop. 65 protects Californians from chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm.) H.R. 4167 also would limit states’ ability to enact new food-safety laws for emerging hazards or other areas where the federal government has not acted, such as in the cases of banning a dietary supplement. Urge your Senators to oppose the National Uniformity for Food Act of 2005, H.R. 4167. If you would like to view details on this alert, please visit here. |
