What I'd like Nancy Pelosi and Congress to do

[Guest guest]

Hi Jack,

 

Love your commentary on CNN. You're the best! I used to watch you on local

NYC TV in the old days.

 

Now that Nancy Pelosi and [my fellow] Dems will take control of the House,

as the editor and publisher of _www.RawFoodsNewsMagazine.com_

(http://www.RawFoodsNewsMagazine.com) (which has been celebrating raw foods

cuisine since I

founded the magazine in NYC in 2001), I'd like them to do whatever is

necessary to give the USDA the power to enforce the organic labeling law. It's

a

crime that the law, which protects consumers, is not being enforced. We who

want to eat produce grown without toxic chemicals are paying extra and might

not

even be getting organic produce because the agency has said it lacks the

funding to hire enough people to enforce the law.

 

Also, we raw foodists would like to see a law that creates a " raw food "

label certification and enforces it.

 

Thanks for inviting our input,
