Stop CAFTA now
Contact your congressmen and senators

Your access to dietary supplements is seriously threatened by expansion of the NAFTA trade agreement via threatened passage of CAFTA, the Central American Free Trade Agreement which was just voted out of committee in both the House and Senate despite our best efforts to stop it.

As discussed in the form letter below, CAFTA contains language called "SPS" or "Sanitary Phytosanitary Measures" which can be used to harmonize the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (which allows you access to dietary supplements) to restrictive international standards which would ban them.

Bush will attempt to bring CAFTA up for a vote before the August recess (sometime in June or July), and he's currently attempting to line up the votes to pass it.

CAFTA continues the failed policies of NAFTA which has caused a massive $617 Billion trade deficit, which seriously devalues the dollar. If the failed policy of NAFTA are allowed to continue via CAFTA and the FTAA (Free Trade Area of the Americas) it will LITERALLY DESTROY AMERICA and force us into a hemispheric version of the EU Dictatorship.

It is imperative that you alert your friends and family to join you in taking this action. It is imperative that you alert every health food store in your area because they're being misled on this issue by the pharma dominated vitamin trade associations which aren't telling them the truth.

"To harmonize sanitary and phytosanitary measures on as wide a basis as possible, Members SHALL base their food safety measures on international standards, guidelines or recommendations."

This makes the supposedly voluntary Codex Alimentarius standard for vitamins and minerals MANDATORY for all WTO member nations.

Cannot happen? This happened in the fall of 2004:

A WTO tribunal outlawed Utah's ban on gambling, opening the door to millions
of dollars in penalties against all states with anti-gambling restrictions. Antigua had
charged that Utah's ban on gambling violated America's obligation not to discriminate
against foreigners providing recreational services.

In other words, the World Trade Organization told a state of the United States of America that a law they passed was illegal, in the WTO's eyes!!

And again:

WTO tribunals have ruled against the USA in 42 out of 48 cases, many of which were very
costly to our economy.

It's time for the people of the USA to get involved. Write your Congressmen, tell your friends!!

For your convenience, we have created a printable letter to send to your Senator or Representative.
