Jim Turner delivers an Editorial comment regarding Senate Bill 510 which passed, but has not been sent onto the House because it contains an improper measure to raise revenue.  Measures to raise revenue are to originate in the House.  The pressure should not be taken off to defeat this Bill.

David Gumpert is a former reporter for the Wall Street Journal and is the author of "Raw Milk Revolution: Behind America's Emerging Battle Over Food Rights".  In this book, Gumpert raises the question of whether individual choice can survive when the agents of government raise their sights against a minority practicing their beliefs.  

Discusses the current battle over Senate Bill 510.  The Wall Street Journal has expressed the view that there is no evidence that the Bill is necessary.  He also discusses the Tester Amendment and the FDA's list of requirements to qualify for exemption.
