“If farmers were hoping to see a new farm bill this year, they may very well be disappointed — as a new schism between the two houses of Congress was made clear this week, when the Senate agricultural committee released a draft of its farm bill that excluded a law known as the Save Our Bacon Act.

Save Our Bacon, or SOB, would override state and local laws like California’s Prop 12, which bans the sale of pork, chicken, and veal products that come from farms using the most extreme forms of animal confinement, such as gestation crates for hogs.

Experts also argue that passing a farm bill that allows industrial animal agriculture operations to skirt state laws sets a bad precedent for broader environmental and public health goals.”

The farm bill is becoming a backdoor for Big Ag to gut the consumer protections voters actually voted for. Read the full story here.

Then take action and tell Congress to remove Section 12006 from the Farm Bill!

On June 25, the Supreme Court ruled 7-2 in Monsanto v. Durnell to strip cancer victims of a key legal pathway to hold Bayer accountable for Roundup. John Durnell was a gardener who used Roundup for decades. He got non-Hodgkin lymphoma. A Missouri jury awarded him over a million dollars after finding Monsanto failed to warn him of the risks. Last week the Supreme Court wiped that away, and with it, potentially the claims of tens of thousands of people just like him.

Bayer spent years and tens of millions of dollars building a network of influence that runs straight through the Trump White House, the Justice Department, and the EPA. The same administration that promised to Make America Healthy Again filed a brief asking the Supreme Court to side with a German corporation over American cancer patients. The people running the EPA right now came directly from the industry they are supposed to regulate. That pipeline delivered this ruling.

But the fight is not over. Lawyers say the ruling was narrow and cases built on negligence and design defect will continue. Bayer may have won Monsanto v. Durnell, but it will rue the day it kicked our hornets’ nest! Anger at the company had already inspired bills banning or restricting its carcinogenic glyphosate-based Roundup herbicide to be introduced in a dozen states. Let’s make it 50!

TAKE ACTION: Tell Your State to Ban Glyphosate, Not Bail Out Bayer!

Increasing hair loss, wrinkles, joint pain, and forgetfulness aren't always just normal aging. Exposure to mold from food and damp buildings can create mycotoxins that accelerate aging and destroy your health and happiness. Normal aging or mold?

“Modern, commercial agriculture has engineered the life out of our food. In the pursuit of shelf stability, uniform appearance, and high-yield pest resistance, mass-produced vegetables are grown in essentially dead dirt, sustained by synthetic chemicals, and then heavily washed in chlorine solutions before they ever hit the produce aisle. While this process creates a clean-looking vegetable, it actively strips away the single most important component for human digestive health: the natural, diverse soil microbiome. “
