The government has no right to interfere with a farmer's animals. A horse or cow is the property of the farmer - NOT the governments!!

I am not a veteran but I strongly support all our veterans in peace and war. NAIS or any of its successors is a poke in the eye to every veteran who has fought for our constitution and freedom.

The best way to solve the healthcare and food safety problems is to assist ALL farmers to transition to organic, sustainable, pasture-based farming. NAIS does not solve either of these problems, just continues to drain the taxpayers of money and farmers of their liberty.

I'm not a vet but I have 2 brothers and many dear loved friends who fought for this country.what they did NOT fight for was such disregard for the citizens to be used so a bunch of 'hotshot' corporations can get rich at the expense of our health. That's what it really boils down to.

I am not a veteran but I am AGAINST the NAIS!!! Please do not take away our rights like this. This will destroy the small farmes and people just trying to survive by raising their own meat.
This is not right. Please put a stop to this asap
Thank you

I am a veteran and I'll speak for my deceased father and grandfather. 38 years combined service to in the USMC. This is an atrocity! We didn't fight for the rights of corporations. We fought for the rights of the American People..FLESH AND BLOOD.

We the people ask you - our public servants - not to undermine us, our farmers, or our food supply with this type of legislation. It will only serve to put me, a small family farmer, out of business and make everything that I do illegal. What it will do is boost sales of products from agri-giant-corporations who feed us GMO, hormones, chemicals and make us sicker as a people every day.
You have to represent us- not big business - or we will fire you.

My health has become very important to me, and so the food I put in my body is important. I watch, in shock, as my government tries to make it harder for me to gain access to healthy food grown locally by small farmers who care about their land and their animals. Any farmer wanting to do the right thing by raising food and animals without chemicals must wade through mounds of red tape and government fees, while the big food producers produce empty calories from grains subsidized by my tax dollars. So many of my tax dollars are paying for food I don't even eat, while the food I eat costs twice as much or more as conventionally grown food.
And now my government wants to add an additional financial and logistical burden on a product that reaps no benefit thereby while turning a blind eye to the products that are poisoning people and the land on which they're grown.
You, my government, are nothing more than a group of the ungoverned. And your cramming this NAIS down our throats is abhorent. I used to be proud of this country; now I'm embarrassed by it and fearful of its leaders because of the power they wield over something as simple as the food I eat.
Money is a wonderful thing, but a good night's sleep is even better.

NAIS is intrusive, constitutionally questionable, and will surely lead to the demise of many smaller scale farms. What we need now is DECENTRALIZATION, and local farm markets, rather than massive industrial agricultural operations. I strongly oppose NAIS.

I believe that mad cow disease is spreading in the U.S. and it is the fault of big industry - not the independent farmer. Apparently a Tampa, Florida man (employed by the sheriff's department) just died of mad cow disease. I believe that the micro-chip will be used to track disease, BUT it will only be the small farmer who will be shut down - big industry has too much money at risk and they can keep their health problems (such as mad cow) a secret!
