Thanks Phaewryn!!! I think this is important too, and consider myself an activist, in a good way of course.

Re: OT For those of you who use compounded drugs, for humans or for pets: Safe Drug Compounding Act of 2007
It does not yet have a Bill number as it has not been introduced yet. That makes THIS the perfect time to write your senators and representatives (as it will eventually go through the House if it passes the Senate) and tell them to NOT support it! Here is the FDA news article about it if you want more info: http://www.fdanews.com/dailies/drugdaily/3_55/news/67461-1.html It has been created by Senators Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.), and co-sponsored by Richard Burr (R-N.C.) and Pat Roberts (R-Kan.). It will first be introduced to the Senate health committee, so contacting any Senator that is from your state that is on that committee is crucial, as they have the first stroke of power to dismiss it as bad legislation. Here is that committee's info: 2007 US Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee Committee Chair: Sen.Edward M. Kennedy (DEM-MA) Sen. Bernard Sanders (IND-VT) Sen. Christopher Dodd (DEM-CT) Sen. Tom Harkin (DEM-IA) Sen. Barbara Mikulski (DEM-MD) Sen. Jeff Bingaman (DEM-NM) Sen. Patty Murray (DEM-WA) Sen. Jack Reed (DEM-RI) Sen. Hillary Clinton (DEM-NY) Sen. Barack Obama (DEM-IL) Sen. Sherrod Brown (DEM-OH) Sen. Michael B. Enzi (REP-WY) Sen. Judd Gregg (REP-NH) Sen. Lamar Alexander (REP-TN) Sen. Richard Burr (REP-NC) - is a co-sponsor Sen.

My senator is *awful* - but at least she is not on that committee. My congressman, on the other hand, is wonderful. He has a 100% voting record of voting like I would if I had the chance, so he has to be wonderful:) On 3/25/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It does not yet have a Bill number as it has not been introduced yet.

I was very fortunate this election season (on the state level, and national congress level), all but ONE of the people I voted for WON! (I didn't get the right Governor) Now, if only I could get the right President! Phaewryn http://ucat.us/domesticcatlinks.html Special Needs Cat Resources

Before I turned ucat.us into a cat resource website, it was a government information and citizen resource website. :-) Here's my old links page, some of the links are now inactive, but you get the idea: http://ucat.us/UCATlinks.html I'm very active politically, I just don't generally bring my political opinions to any of the cat groups I am on... unless someone else brings something up which I feel I can elaborate on and be useful.

Re: OT For those of you who use compounded drugs, for humans or for pets: Safe Drug Compounding Act of 2007
I don't think you will find it, because as of the 17th, it hadn't been submitted yet, according to the news articles. I did a search myself, and was unable to locate a bill number for it. It is possible that you could contact Senator Kennedy directly and ask to view a copy. His contact form: http://kennedy.senate.gov/senator/contact.cfm On a side note, while searching his website for the compounding act (which doesn't appear to be on there), I found this interesting article, which seems to verify that his goal is to simply put more money into the hands of the FDA, one way or another: http://kennedy.senate.gov/newsroom/press_release.cfm?id=C3A92B64-E746-40CE-A25C-16446A54C11C Perhaps he has an clandestine personal agenda in which the FDA is the sole beneficiary?
