 PC> Subject: FDA REFORM BILL (S.830): FORGET THE SENATE- FOCUS ON THE
 PC> HOUSE Newsgroups: misc.health.alternative
 PC> X-Crossposts: misc.fitness.weights,misc.fitness.misc
 PC> Apparently, it *was* too late.  Looks like the Senate approved the
 PC> bloody bill without even reading it.  Here's the latest update:
 PC> SUNDAY 11/9/97: 5:30pm eastern time: The Senate just approved the
 PC> Conference Report on FDA Reform by voice vote (so no vote was
 PC> recorded.) This is a damned outrage. Please see the previous message I
 PC> sent today, and (with the exception of Congressman Paul and Chenoweth
 PC> who are on our side,) please call your Congressmen at 800-972-3524, via
 PC> the US Capital Switchboard, and urge that they vote "NO" on the
 PC> Conference Committee Report on the FDA Reform Bill, since no one knows
 PC> whats in it. 
 PC> (They just told me a short time ago that they weren't done writing it,
 PC> but that a copy would be available "on the floor." Translation: A lot
 PC> of Senators just voted for something they've never read, and they don't
 PC> give a damn about our efforts to amend it. I sure can't find out
 PC> whether or not any of our proposed amendments were put into it or not.
 PC> Congressman Ron Paul's office can't get a copy of it, they've tried. I
 PC> should be able to confer with them and find out whats in the damn
 PC> thing. This is business as usual in Washington, unfortunately. Hell of
 PC> a way to run a country. Hell of a way... Please make your calls and get
 PC> your friends to.
