You made it clear that 10,000 petition signatures in 10 days was only the beginning salvo in American consumers’ call for Congress to demand that the FDA withdraw the misbegotten, supplement-industry- and innovation-killing NDI Draft Guidance. Partly thanks to a stirring video re-mastered by Australian truth rapper Jody Lloyd, aka Trillion, over 12,000 of you signed the petition that we delivered to Congress, the White House and the FDA.
Our next goal was 25,000 signatures by February 25th, and for this truth rapper Trillion came to our aid once again. Thanks to all of you, we met this goal as well.
But, we’re not just setting goals and trying to reach them as some exercise in advocacy; we hand-delivered the first 12,686 signatures to 11 key legislators on Capitol Hill. As a direct result of those meetings we had in Washington on December 2, 2011, Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas) sent out a letter to his entire Congressional District outlining the dangers of the NDI Draft Guidance and how this outrageous document represents the very worst of Big Government, over-regulation and of an agency run amuck.
We are going to deliver the next batch of 12,000+ signatures soon, and you know that it is getting serious attention in Washington DC. And the more the petition grows in signatures, the stronger will be the mandate from the American people that this NDI Draft Guidance must not stand!
If you have not already signed it, please do so now and pass along to everyone you know…..your e-mail contacts, your Facebook friends, your Google+ circles, your Twitter followers, your church, temple or synagogue congregation, your town or city council—you name it!
don’t you mean March 25th??
Hi Laurie,
No, our latest campaign and video was “25 by 25″….25,000 by February 25, which we met…..now we are shooting for 30K!
Many thanks.

I worked for healthcare for 38 years. I have seen very little if any cure and all they care about is more for less care and time for you by giving all the resources to the greedy middleman, (Insurance companies) we don’t need and cutting hours and supplies of the doctors, nurses and techs who need it more and do plenty more to help the public. HMO’s,PPO’s, E.P.A.., F.D.A. get out of healthcare. WE don’t need or want big governments’ help nor do we need it. You have ruined a good thing.
