    Bipartisan Bill to Allow Interstate Traffic of Raw Milk

    enDecember 18, 2019

    About this Episode

    A bipartisan bill has been introduced that would legalize the sale of raw milk across state lines. The Interstate Milk Freedom Act would change an existing regulation by the FDA that restricts the trade of raw milk between states.

    The FDA regulation isn't based on any law or legislation it's simply an edict from the unelected bureaucracy of the FDA. The law would would empower the states to make it legal to sell raw milk across state lines. Speaking about this bill Rep Daniel Webster said “American families can best decide what milk will best serve their sons and daughters," “The FDA has no Congressional directive or safety regulation that justifies interfering in a decision between a consumer and dairy farmer. This is an issue best left up to states and consumers.”

    Rep Lloyd Smucker (R) said Raw milk is a niche product highly valued by educated consumers who understand any risks associated with its consumption. This industry is vital economically for many small family farms in my district, who survive and thrive by selling directly to the consumer. Farmers throughout Pennsylvania’s 11th District and the nation work tirelessly to ensure safe, nutritious dairy products are available to everyone,” “Small family farms have been consuming and distributing raw milk safely for hundreds of years. This bill rightly gets the federal government out of the way and decriminalizes farmers and producers who choose to sell or take unpasteurized milk and other dairy products to willing customers throughout the nation.”

    The legislation has been introduced a number of times in the past but has failed so far. The bill simply says if two states have legalized the sale of unpasteurized milk, then no federal department, agency, or court may take any action to prohibit or restrict the interstate traffic of milk between those two states.

    Rep Thomas Massie owns 50 head of cattle on his off the grid farm in northeast Kentucky. Rep Pingree raises grass-fed beef and chickens on her island farm in North Haven Maine.

    The Lefts Continued March Into Our Public Schools

    The Lefts Continued March Into Our Public Schools

    The left continues its march toward indoctrinating as many kids as possible using our public school systems as the means to do it. Today we look at two stories that clearly document this encroachment.

    The first story is out of the Los Angeles Unified School district, where they’ve allowed Planned Parenthood into the schools. The benefits to PP are two-fold; they get the revenue for providing the service, and they also get to establish a relationship with these young people.

    A group of pro-life college students is pushing back against this and is asking the school district for equal access to the students. The group wants to be able to go into the school to provide a counterbalance to PP narrative. The group faces an uphill battle and may not be successful in this request, but this is better than nothing. Read More Here: FortySixNews.com

    Adult Human Female: The Democrat War on Women

    Democrat policies have been waging war on women. After years of claiming there was a Republicans war on women, it is now becoming patently obvious the real war on woman is happening to women due to far-left policies.

    No policy has eroded the very idea of femininity more than the notion that any man by simple decree can become a woman. A narrative that has become so twisted that the dictionary definition of woman adult human female has become offensive. Can the dictionary definition of women and what the gender radicals consider woman to occupy the same space? If this isn’t the case, wouldn’t that mean one of these things as defined need to cease existing? I would say they both can exist, but there has to be an understanding that men aren’t women, and trans men are just that. e and what the left want The current iteration of what constitutes the Transgender movement is being used as a cudgel to redefine what it means to be a woman. This movement seeks to water down the very definition to push its agenda. The results are women ultimately will lose their identity. Read more at FortySixNews.com
