Thanks Phaewryn!!!  I think this is important too, and
consider myself an activist, in a good way of course. 
Going to add this quote to my signature:

committed citizens can change the world: 
Indeed it is the only thing that ever has!"

Re: OT For those of you who use compounded drugs, for humans or for pets: Safe Drug Compounding Act of 2007

2007-03-25 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
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?

It's so frustrating -- all of these people are talking about what the draft
bill says -- OK - so let us see it.  Where did they get a copy?  I want a
copy.

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:)

This is a good site for finding out what bills are pending in congress, the
congressional record, etc.  I did a search for any bills to do with
compounding drugs but wasn't able to find one.  That doesn't mean that it's
not out there -- I just want to have the specifics before I contact a
representative:
