The Farm-To-Consumer Legal Defense Fund has filed its intention to sue the USDA and MDA. The full announcement can be found at http://www.ftcldf.org/press-15May2008.html
They are seeking to half the implementation of NAIS on several grounds. The Legal Defense Fund is a sister organization to Farm to Consumer Foundation, www.farmtoconsumer.org You can find the full Notice of Intent at their website.
This is a non-profit organization that benefits all of us involved in fighting NAIS. Please support them in any way you can. This will not be an inexpensive fight. Spread the word among your friends and family that raise livestock or appreciate locally raised food, sustainable farms.
