Done.
Great! Who else?
Send emails to your friends too... get them to write or call.
Without action, this bill will pass and we\'ll be screwed!
YOu could always get onto the body buidling forums and life extension mobs and tell them about it.
How about petition at Pherocon 2003 ?
Is there any update on this yet? Whenever I try to search google I either find letters sent to congressmen, or the exact same articles.
And usfa.biz has not been updated in quite awhile since it\'s still refered to as H.R. 207.
Bump
Any members of related forums, or forums that have an interest in prohormones etc, let them know aswell.
EVERYONE ON THIS FORUM IN THE US NEEDS TO WRITE TO THEIR CONGRESSMAN, DO IT NOW
Bumping for the cause [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
i\'ll do it now. I got the name of who to email from www.house.gov.
bump
I\'m not sure if this is still necessary, sorry if it isn\'t, but... bump.
It is necessary!
Please, if you haven\'t sent a letter to BOTH your senator and congressman, DO IT NOW!
Otherwise we will have no pheromones in the USA soon...
I finally got a response from my congressman. Here it is:
-----------
Thanks for your message in opposition to H.R 207, legislation to add any anabolic steroid precursor to the list of federally controlled substances. I appreciate hearing from you.Â
This bill was referred to the Energy and Commerce Committee, the Education and Workforce Committee and the Judiciary Committee, but none of the committees have taken any action on it yet. Should this come to the House Floor for a vote, I will be sure to keep your opposition in mind.
In 1994, millions of Americans voiced their support for congressional passage of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA). This law lets consumers purchase vitamins and nutritional supplements without a prescription. I have long supported DSHEA, and will continue to do so in the future.
Again, thanks for writing. Please stay in touch.
Rep.Peter DeFazio
Fourth District, OREGON

Sounds promising!
Come on guys! Keep up the good work!
That\'s the best response I\'ve seen.
So far what I got back were one non-commital response and one lack of a response.
Keep calling and writing!
I hate to sound pessimistic, but even if this bill doesn\'t pass, it\'s highly likely something like it eventually will.
Prohormones/prosteriods have gotten to the point where they are nearly as effective as illegal steriods. 1-testosterone is actually an anabolic steriod which is legal (for now). Many prohormones have the same side effects if misused as illegal steriods. (Which are fairly minor if you actually look into the research, not the hype.) Even if this particular bills fails, it\'s only a matter of time until some idiot (likely a teen -- it would get more attention) commits murder and blames \"prohormone rage.\"
When legistlation comes, if history is any measure, it will be too broad. The question is one of enforcement. This bill would make pheros technically illegal, however, it\'s likely that it would not be enforced (I doubt Bruce would want to chance it though).
The crackdown of GHB made possession of many articles of clothing a felony because they contain a GHB metabolite. So theoretically thousands of people could be hauled in under that law. Of course that\'s not happening.
I can only hope that\'s what would happen if/when this bill or one like it is signed into law.
And yes, I had written my congressmen even before seeing this.
