To amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, the Federal Meat Inspection Act, the Poultry Products Inspection Act, and the Egg Products Inspection Act to improve the safety of food, meat, and poultry products through enhanced traceability, and for other purposes.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
February 3, 2009
Ms. DEGETTE (for herself, Ms. BORDALLO, Mr. NADLER of New York, and Ms. DELAURO) introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on Agriculture, and in addition to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
H.R. 814 called the [Tracing and Recalling Agricultural Contamination Everywhere Act of 2009] or, [The Trace Act of 2009] is nothing less than the federal intent to mandate the National Animal Identification System (NAIS) and of course “and for other purposes”.
SEC. 26. TRACEABILITY OF LIVESTOCK, MEAT, AND MEAT PRODUCTS.
(a) Definition of Traceability- In this section, the term ‘traceability’ means the ability to retrieve the history, use, and location of an article through a recordkeeping and audit system or registered identification.
(b) Requirements-
(1) IN GENERAL- Cattle, sheep, swine, goats, and horses, mules, and other equines presented for slaughter for human food purposes, and the carcasses or parts of carcasses and the meat and meat food products of those animals, shipped in interstate commerce shall be identified in a manner that enables the Secretary to trace-
(A) each animal to any premises or other location at which the animal was held at any time before slaughter; and
(B) each carcass or part of a carcass and meat and meat food product of such animals forward from slaughter through processing and distribution to the ultimate consumer.
(2) TRACEABILITY SYSTEM- Not later than 1 year after the date of the enactment of this section, the Secretary shall establish a traceability system for all stages of production, processing, and distribution of meat and meat food products that are produced through the slaughter of animals described in paragraph (1).
(c) Prohibition or Restriction on Entry- The Secretary may prohibit or restrict entry into any slaughtering establishment inspected under this Act of any cattle, sheep, swine, goats, or horses, mules, or other equines not identified as prescribed by the Secretary under subsection (b).
Apparently USDA was inefficient in its efforts to forcibly overtake the US food supplies and the federal government has found it necessary to intervene and make mandatory the implementation of NAIS on all levels.
SEC. 26. TRACEABILITY OF LIVESTOCK, MEAT, AND MEAT PRODUCTS.
(g) Relation to Country of Origin Labeling- Nothing contained in this section prevents or interferes with implementation of the country of origin labeling requirements of subtitle D of the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 (7 U.S.C. 1638 et seq.).’.
Isn’t this section a hoot! No mention is made of the labeling law passed in 2005 requiring the country of origin to be listed on the label of foods, or, the listing of cloned, genetically altered or mutated foods. A law which this same government has refused to enforce in deference to corporate donors who know the garbage they are packaging and selling isn’t fit for human consumption.
H.R. 814 is clearly nothing less than the federal legislation converting NAIS from a bad a idea to horrendous plan for seizing food production from any source in the US and handing it over to Frankenfood industrialized factory farms on behalf of the bio-pirates who have apparently bought and paid for this legislation.
Ms. Degette, Ms. Bordallo, and Mr. Nadler should all be removed from office. In fact anyone supporting or voting to pass this latest piece of anti-American garbage should be run out of the country.
When will we stop abiding traitors, corporate whores and world government advocates in the government of the sovereign United States? Our House and Senate on both sides are filled with individuals who have neither patriotism nor loyalty to this country and who work to dismantle our Republic, our freedom and our way of life.
The three “public servants” sponsoring this bill are just a small trio in what has become the wholesale destruction of our nation perpetrated by one corrupted congress after another.
What will it take for the American public to stand up and say “enough!”.

NAIS takes care of the food animals and Codex Alimentarius will take take of growing our own plant foods and access to vitamins and supplements and have supermarket plant food irradiated. First step in starving everyone to death.

I am sorry but voting these criminals out of office does no good at all as there is always an entire new set of criminals to take their place, Washington D.C. is a revolving door for liars, cheats and the unethical. People need to understand that all forms of politics is corrupt, and voting is absolutely meaningless. The will of the people never comes into play. The only thing that gets these corrupt evil politicians attention is when you cut off the money supply. We need a unified tax revolt on April 15th. 200 million tax payers refusing to voluntarily file their taxes. This is the only thing in my opinion that will get their attention and effectiate any type of change. The two party system we have in this country is completely corrupt and when you only have two parties there is just too much of a chance for collusion. My advice stop whining in these blogs and take a stand.

Jeff, I agree with you, but refusing to file tax returns and pay taxes will not stop them. None of the taxes go to the government. They go to pay the private company now controlling the country, i.e. the “Federal” Reserve. If no one pays taxes, they will not be damaged. They will just punish those people. If everyone stops paying taxes, they will just speed up the move to put us into the death camps, already waiting, manned with guards and waiting for our arrival. This is a lot more serious than anyone wants to look at. We need a workable plan, and right now, or we will be planning from inside the walls of those camps. And it goes without saying that writing to congress is a complete waste of time. If we don’t come up with a real idea now, there will be no need to bother.

#3. Jeff Stuart…
Just what the heck do you think we’ve been doing? We’ve been standing up, we’ve been taking action. Now we need more people to do likewise. What have you done? Anything in real life? Traveled to a meeting? Visited Washington, DC to talk to the traitors? Sent money so someone could travel? There isn’t a chance in hell that you are going to get people to not pay their taxes, so pick another plan.

2009 Federal NAIS Legislation
Here are links to the legislation being proposed and the committees they are currently referred to.
Go to the link, see if your representative is involved (Illinois is in HR875), click on that link, and send him/her your opinion. It is really that easy. Don’t forget that Poultry is involved among the 33 species, so if you have/know of someone who has chickens, et al – you might want to forward to them also:

I like to think of myself as informed, but my guess is that I am one of most Americans who have known virtually nothing about NAIS.
Here’s a possible plan: Begin with 9-11.
Just Change the Channel.
Guantanamo, and all the evils of the war on terrorism which spewed forth in the wake of
9-11 could be reversed with a prime time showing by a major TV network of any of the 9-11
Evidence-of-Conspiracy films. Justice weighs all sides, and the evidence falls heavily on the
case for Conspiracy. Public repudiation of the 9-11 Box Cutter Story could bring down the
military industrial complex and restore peace to this country.
Suggestion: JUST CHANGE THE CHANNEL. NO ABC – NBC – FOX NEWS – CBS -
PBS. BOYCOTT THE MAJOR TV NETWORKS UNTIL THEY PROVIDE PRIME
TIME AIRING OF A 9-11 CONSPIRACY EVIDENCE FILM.** (See below)
(And occasionally call the local stations to tell them what we are doing.)
