This is why we can not and will never heal as a nation. All this bill will do is continue the anger in people. I never owned a slave (getting me off the hook) and I don't know any one who was a slave (making the people I know ineligible).
My grandparents came over from Poland 100 years ago. As much as they loved their country they fled the brutality of an invader. Do I go back to Russia and demand reparations for the suffering of the Poles? As sad as my grandmother was to never have seen her parents again I am thankful to her for her sacrifice which enabled me to be born in the greatest country in the world. I would not have the freedoms and opportunities America offers if it wasn't for her courage.

Bill HR 875 - Home Gardening May Become Illegal
What is in the heads of our elected officials besides air? They want to make us a nation of poverty, a people dependent on them for everything... right down to the basics like food. Bill HR 875 will do exactly that.
Introduced by Democrat Rosa DeLauro in February her husband, Stanley Greenburg, works for Monsanto. Monsanto is the world's biggest producer of herbicides and genetically engineered seeds. They would GREATLY benefit if thousands of small organic farmers were put out of business, because organic farmers don't use Monsanto products.

- Legally binds state agriculture depts to enforcing federal guidelines effectively taking away the states power to do anything other than being food police for the federal dept.
- Effectively criminalizes organic farming but doesn't actually use the word organic.
- Effects anyone growing food even if they are not selling it but consuming it (home gardens).
- Effects anyone producing meat of any kind including wild game.
