Enforce the food modernization act ! People are getting sick or dying daily from food borne pathogens "lets get it done"

Created by M.A. on March 01, 2013

DEAR PRESIDENT OBAMA, 23 MONTHS AGO you signed into law THE FOOD MODERNIZATION ACT.To give us a safer food supply, It was passed by Congress with broad bipartisan support. Myself and several other victims of food poisoning were in Washington DC with major sponsors to lobby for the Government to eliminate the 80 year old laws our food supply was using. But it still isnt working, because I still get food recalls everyday even by repeat offenders. We must stop the government from cutting funding for food safety in the US, for the record there are 76 million sickened 325,000 people hospitalized and 5,000 die. From food poisoning each year, and that is only what is reported. I'm sure you wouldn't want to be a victim or have a loved one of yours die from food poisoning "PLEASE TAKE ACTION NOW"
