Urgent Action Needed - U.S. Health Freedom on Verge of Collapse

April 25, 2007
A new attack against health freedom, drug safety, and dietary supplements was launched last week by Senator Edward Kennedy (D-MA) with major support from Michael Enzi (R-WY). It is called the Food and Drug Administration Revitalization Act (S1082).
