* No, you actually don’t gotta hand it to the anti-vax crank, Mr. Secretary…
Needless to say, when you’re trying to pass a bill that’s way out of your zone of influence, you have to read the room.

The Illinois Manufacturers’ Association (IMA) released the following statement about SB 93, which is scheduled to be heard in the Senate Public Health Committee this afternoon:
“This legislation sets a dangerous precedent for food regulation by bypassing the scientists at the U.S. Food & Drug Administration and giving politicians the ability to make determinations on food safety,” said Donovan Griffith, Vice President of Government Affairs for the Illinois Manufacturers’ Association. “The FDA has a stringent process for evaluating food safety that has been proven to work. Illinois should not undermine these safeguards. Food safety should be left to the experts.”
