Urgent call for action, last chance to defeat S 510 Food Safety Modernization Act

“There’s a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious — makes you so sick at heart — that you can’t take part. You can’t even passively take part. And you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you’ve got to make it stop! And you’ve got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it that unless you’re free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!” – Mario Savio, December 2, 1964

Although Mario Savio’s speech was about political activism and the Berkeley Free Speech Movement (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_…), it could have very well been about Senate Bill 510, the so-called Food Safety Modernization Act.
