There is a link below that will allow U.S. residents to send a letter to their representatives to oppose this bill. Personally, I am very much against such legislation.

New Bill Seeks to Ban Consumer Access to Dietary Supplements
Senator John McCain has introduced a bill that if passed will drive up the cost of dietary supplements and restrict your access to them.
This bill seeks to give the FDA complete and arbitrary control over what supplements you are allowed to have. I am writing you about this and a far more important matter.
If you believe in the science of mathematics, you may have noticed that this country is descending into financial oblivion. There is a debate as to whether this is the fault of the private or governmental sector.
My position is simple. If it were not for the technological advances made possible by private enterprise, the adverse effects of governmental ineptitude would have rendered this nation insolvent decades ago. Said differently, if it were not for the increases in productivity and reductions in costs made possible by free enterprise, government waste and fraud would have already destroyed us.
By way of example, Life Extension has approximately 300 employees today. We develop dietary supplement formulations and make them available at lower relative prices each year. If it were not for our private enterprise-invented computers, it would require several thousand employees to do the same work. That would mean higher prices and inferior products for you, assuming we remained solvent.
Senator John McCain (and others) is proposing to squander tax-debt dollars by mandating more government waste, while sticking the private sector with oppressive laws that will hinder scientific advances and increase costs. The net effect will be to take away your free access to dietary supplements.
Pharmaceutical interests are obviously behind this latest effort to legislatively force more Americans towards expensive prescription drugs and away from natural ways of preventing degenerative disease.
In normal times, I would ask each of you to e-mail Congress to demand that they refuse to co-sponsor the bill that John McCain introduced in the Senate. But these are far from normal times.
You should instead use John McCain?s bill as an example of the rampant tax-debt fraud being perpetrated by Washington, D.C., politicians and bureaucrats. Please use our convenient legislative action center to e-mail your Senators and Representative to not only protest against this corrupt piece of legislation, but every government project that contributes to an impossible-to-pay-back federal debt.
(Note: This communication is not an attack on John McCain or any other elected official. Many Senators would have been deceived by pharmaceutical lobbyists as you will soon read.)
