Oppose HR 2749, a bill that fails to address the real issues of food safety yet gives FDA increased power with less accountability. Its one-size-fits-all regulatory scheme will impact small farms and artisanal producers for the worse. 

Support HR 778 Now, a bill that would effectively end the current federal ban on raw milk and raw milk products for human consumption in interstate commerce.
