 <description>&lt;p&gt;[&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.votekansas.org/reform/f/action/2009-02-27/stop-nais-funding&quot;&gt;This Page&lt;/a&gt;|&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.votekansas.org/reform/f/system/files/Stop-Senate-NAIS-Funding-01.pdf&quot;&gt;Printable PDF Flyer&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Every Thursday for the past 6 Months, Government Officials have raided homes and businesses -- sometimes at Gunpoint, sometimes with a Warrant, and sometimes with nothing more then the burly bodies that intimidate those about to be oppressed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some cases of oppression by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.google.com/sea&lt;br /&gt;
rch?q=nais+wto&amp;amp;btnG=Search&quot; target=&quot;vkuse&quot;&gt;NAIS&lt;/a&gt; and government enforcers that deserve much wider attention: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.google.com/search?q=stowers+ohio&amp;amp;btnG=Google+Search&quot; target=&quot;vkuse&quot;&gt;Stowers&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.google.com/search?q=Greg+Niewendorp&amp;amp;btnG=Search&quot; target=&quot;vkuse&quot;&gt;Greg Niewendorp&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.google.com/search?q=Steve+Hixon+seed&amp;amp;btnG=Search&quot; target=&quot;vkuse&quot;&gt;Steve Hixon&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.google.com/search?q=Emmanuel+Miller+nais&amp;amp;btnG=Search&quot; target=&quot;vkuse&quot;&gt;Emmanuel Miller&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.google.com/search?q=Paul+Griepentrog+nais&amp;amp;btnG=Search&quot; target=&quot;vkuse&quot;&gt;Paul Griepentrog&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.google.com/search?q=Sharon+Palmer+nais&amp;amp;btnG=Search&quot; target=&quot;vkuse&quot;&gt;Sharon Palmer&lt;/a&gt;.  The oppressors plan to oppress us all.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Today -- Thursday of course -- H.R. 1105 is awaiting assignment to Committee in the U.S. Senate. It stands poised to allocate $289 million to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.google.com/search?q=APHIS&amp;amp;btnG=Search&quot; target=&quot;vkuse&quot;&gt;APHIS&lt;/a&gt; for the implementation of the National Animal Identification System. It also outlines the time frame to implement in 2009 the tracking of 33 species.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d111:HR01105:@@@X&quot; target=&quot;vkuse&quot;&gt;http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d111:HR01105:@@@X&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The treacherous U.S. House managed to pass this &quot;Omnibus 2009&quot; in 24 hours, and we have no reason to believe that the U.S. Senate will not pass it quickly and eagerly as well.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What are you going to do? We as living human beings do not go to the polls to elect officials to represent Multi-National Corporations or Lobbyists paid by groups attempting to get their piece of the pie.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;THE LARGEST UNPAID LOBBYIST GROUP IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IS SITTING IN THAT CHAIR IN FRONT OF THE KEYBOARD!  YOU BELONG TO IT!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Contact your Elected Officials and related Organizations -- as many as you can right now, today, and for the next several days.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The first person to contact is &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:AgSec@USDA.gov&quot;&gt;AgSec@USDA.gov&lt;/a&gt; and then your U.S. Senators.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Call Congressional switchboard at &lt;b&gt;(202) 224-3121&lt;/b&gt;.  Ask for Pat Roberts (KS) and then Sam Brownback (KS).  Find complete contact info at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.visi.com/juan/congress/&quot; target=&quot;vkuse&quot;&gt;http://www.visi.com/juan/congress/&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The message is simple:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We don&#039;t want -- and we will not comply with -- the National Animal Identification System.
&lt;li&gt;We do not want H.R. 1105 out of Senate Committee.
&lt;li&gt;We do not want H.R. 1105 passed by the Senate, either by itself or together with other bills.
&lt;li&gt;NAIS is an assault on our food supply and our economy.
&lt;li&gt;NAIS is an unconstitutional assault on our Life, Liberty, and Pursuit of Happiness.
&lt;li&gt;NAIS subjugates our production, selling, distribution, purchasing, and consumption of food to the whims of beaurocrats and agents of a government that is more interested in serving multi-national corporations and trading organizations than in upholding and defending the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.
&lt;li&gt;We want it stopped!  Stop it on Friday 27, 2009!
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then call &lt;b&gt;(202) 224-3121&lt;/b&gt; and complain to your Representatives that the fast-tracking of the &quot;Omnibus&quot; Bill was unconscionable, un-Constitutional, and a betrayal of all Americans: Jerry Moran (KS-1st), Lynn Jenkins (KS-2nd), Dennis Moore (KS-3rd), or Todd Tiahrt (KS-4th).&lt;/p&gt;
