THANK YOU ALL! 10,812 of us!!! We appreciate so much what you have done already. And we really want to see this happen. If you do too, maybe take just a few minutes more of your time and do these 4 things- that would be awesome!! The main advocacy groups such as FARE and AAFA are cheering us on!
We can speed this up! If each one of us helps just a little more it would make a huge difference, and we may actually see change sooner.
Our main goal: Get a senator or state rep to sponsor our bill, and keep building momentum by getting more signatures!
1. Call Congressman Frank Pallone! Phone: (202) 225-4671
Tell them that you want Frank Pallone to know that 10,000+ of us would like our concerns added to “The Food Modernization Act of 2021”, or to sponsor our proposed bill to go with it. Give them link: www.change.org/BetterFoodLaws and my email (marniBacker@yahoo.com)
2. Share it/ share again/ tweet it/ tweet again & again/ use all your social media to get the word out. Post on social media about it! (you can share my posts from my personal pag on facebook) (Keep posting, & commenting on the posts in the fb groups, so it stays at the top of the news feed, so others can see it. (There are sooo many who need these changes, we have to keep trying to reach them)
3. Get 5 others to sign
4. Contact your state’s rep & congressmen:
Tell them you are calling in support of a 14 yr. old boy who had a life-threatening allergic reaction to a poorly labeled product, and now he wants a New “Label Pack of Laws” to be passed. They can see an idea of the laws on the petition. www.change.org/BetterFoodLaws . Tell them the major food allergy groups are cheering us on, but can’t help unless we get a sponsor, and to contact: Marni Backer Deimler (MarniBacker@yahoo.com)

It seems that the main advocacy groups are first just trying to get us more funding for research and a cure. While we wait for this labeling issue to get the attention it needs, they are cheering us on!
Thanks again for all your support! Thank you for signing! sharing! donating & all you are doing! I can’t express how much it means to us, knowing that because of you guys we are seeing needed attention on this. Now! we keep at it! We can do this!
