What the Citizen’s Petition Is About?

When you think about a petition, do you see yourself in front of the grocery store signing a piece of paper with some fifty-odd names on a card table, with a plastic table cloth and a hand lettered sign?
Well, a Citizen’s Petition is a very different tool for action. A Citizen’s Petition is a legal means to focus a government agency’s attention on an issue of concern to you. Once a Citizen’s Petition has been entered, a “docket” to debate is opened and public comment is accepted. A Citizen’s Petition does have one thing in common with the more familiar ones, though. Any number of people can add their names to it and become co-petitioners.
The current pro-Codex Alimentarius policy of the U.S. Codex Office is in violation of U.S. law. With our Citizen’s Petition, we are asking the U.S. government to change its policy on Codex Alimentarius to comply with U.S. law.
The Natural Solutions Foundation Citizen’s Petition is a ground-breaking legal approach to compel the US Government to amend its Codex Policies, hold public hearings and move from a pro-illness Codex position to a pro-health one.
If we don’t like the response, the law allows us to proceed to court.
So far, about 30,000+ people have joined our petition. And what’s more, three members of Congress have written a Congressional Letter in support of our Citizen’s Petition.
When you click on the link below, you will be sending this letter to the US Codex Manager, Dr. Edwin Scarbrough, and Dr. Barbara Schneeman, Head of the FDA’s Office of Nutritional Products:

Drs. Schneeman and Scarbrough:
I am deeply concerned about health and health freedom in the US under the continuing assault of both Codex Alimentarius and those domestic forces which seek to undermine my access to natural health promotion options (including nutritional supplements and clean, unadulterated food). Therefore I wish to join the Natural Solutions Foundation in urging you to support the adoption and implementation through legislation and regulation of the Revised Vitamin and Mineral Guideline (VMG) which would put the US in a position of Codex Compliance per our Vitamin and Mineral laws and regulations (thus avoiding the possibility of huge WTO trade sanctions in disputes around those nutrients). This Revised VMG would, at the same time, strengthen and solidify the principles of DSHEA for the benefit of the health of both the populace and the Wellness Industry. Please direct Codex Delegates to foster those policies and do so in your domestic policy dealings as well.

I urge you to adopt US Codex policies which support of the spirit and the letter of the protective tradition, regulation and legislation representing the best of public policy. Those policies should be strictly in line with US law preventing harmonization with any international standard or guideline which conflict or contradicts United States law as specified in the Citizen Petition and its Amendments provided to your offices by the Natural Solutions Foundation.
I wish to join the petition and add my voice to those of other Americans who want their health and health freedom supported by their government domestically and internationally in support of the positions, hearing requests and Revised Vitamin and Mineral Guideline presented in that Petition as delineated in the most recent Amendment (submitted to you on October 14, 2005 by the Natural Solutions Foundation), and to the Secretaries of Agriculture, Health and Human Services, Commerce, Transportation, Commissioners of the EPA and FDA, President Bush, Vice President Cheney and the Majority and Minority leaders of both Houses of Congress.
Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. Codex standards, guidelines and regulations threaten our rights and laws in serious ways by lowering the protective bar to satisfy trade, not health, considerations. This is highly detrimental to us all and is a violation of the significant protection offered to us in this country by laws like DSHEA and similar statutes.
Please bring US Codex Policy and activities of the US Codex Office and FDA in line with US law and protective public policy.
Yours in health and freedom,
(Your Full Name)
(Your Full Address)
(Your email address)

Questions?
Read FAQ’s about the Natural Solutions Foundation’s Citizens Petition here:

QUESTION: I sign petitions almost every day, and most of them only require you to add your name, address, etc. Is there some sort of legal reason why this particular petition is different?

ANSWER: Those “everyday” petitions were not part of an actual legal suit (which a Citizen’s Petition is). They were an outpouring of public support for a position or belief. Unlike them, a Citizen’s Petition is actually the first step in an organized legal challenge to policy of the government. In this case, we are insisting that the US Government abide by the law of the land in terms of its Codex policy.. When you submit the Citizens Petition it says that you are a concerned Citizen who is using your Constitutional Right to petition your government to redress wrongs. Thanks for your activism.

QUESTION: What happens when I submit my Citizens Petition to the Natural Solutions Foundation?

ANSWER: Your Citizens Petition will be counted and added to the growing number of submissions we receive at the Natural Solutions Foundation every single day. If you check the box adding your email to the Natural Solutions Foundation mailing list you will receive periodic email alerts. Your submission allows you to join the legal challenge to the US Government’s Codex policy but does not obligate you to anything further.

QUESTION: Who is paying the legal fees for this challenge?

ANSWER: The Citizens Petition has been created through the pro bono dedication of our team of lawyers and other experts who believe as passionately as everyone else here at the Natural Solutions Foundation that you have the right to make your own choices about your own health and health freedom! Your donations, of course, help make it possible to keep this challenge going since there are a multitude of other costs associated with making sure the US Government does not trample over our self determination concerning our diet, our bodies and our health.   Get Involved
