Health Freedom Action

Support Rep. Cannon's "Science Free Speech Act" H.R, 7120

Among Health Freedom's friends in Congress we have often included Rep. Chris Cannon of Utah. His latest efforts include the introduction of a major piece of legislation to support truthful information about dietary supplement health claims.

This Action Item lets you tell your member of Congress how important this bill is, and that you want your member to become a Co-sponsor, the first important step to moving a bill toward hearings and a vote.

Thank you!

Dear Representative

Utah Congressman Chris Cannon has recently introduced a bill, the Science Free Speech Act, H.R. 7120-- this bill would protect the public's right to know truthful information about health and nutrition.

As one of your constituents, I urge you to immediately become a Co-Sponsor and strong supporter of this important bill. Health Freedom is a "litmus test' issue for me and your support of this bill is something I will take into account when voting for Congress.

I agree with the US Supreme Court in Thompson v Western States, 535 U.S. 357:

"If the First Amendment means anything, it means that regulating speech must be a last - not first - resort... We have previously rejected the notion that the Government has an interest in preventing the dissemination of truthful commercial information in order to prevent members of the public from making [even] bad decisions with the information..."

We will add your signature from the information you provide.
