Dear Commissioner Henney,

I am writing to express my concern about the possible weakening of labeling requirements for irradiated food that is being considered by the FDA.  I strongly believe that it is my right to know if the food I serve my family and students has been treated with radiation.  77% of Americans do not want to buy irradiated food.  It is the government's role to protect  consumers, not assist the meat industry in their efforts to trick us.  Please defend the consumer's right to know.

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely,

Pam Hawkins
