Dear Ms. Henney,

I'm very concerned about our food supplies in this country.  I strongly believe that we have a right to know what we are feeding ourselves and our children.  Just as labels must contain ingredients showing the greatest to the least amounts, we have a right to know what antibiotics, and in what amounts, are being used in our agricultural food products.  Please act responsibly for the health of the population of our country and our world.  If we act hastily in the name of "economic progress" we may have to live with the consequences (or NOT live, as the case may be).   People's lives depend on your judgment and action in these matters.  Please do the right thing. 
Sincerely, Karen Hertz
