http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/56 ... _KEY=18970I am writing to you at the suggestion of the Natural Solutions Foundation, a not for profit non governmental educational organization focused on natural health and health freedom, to urge you to co-sponsor S. 891, the Child Medication Safety Act or introduce sister legislation in the House to protect America's children from compulsory drugging on the urging of schools and their parents from charges of abuse and neglect if they choose not to medicate their child on the say-so of the school.
.
The issue is stark: health fascism vs. health freedom.
This legislation eliminate one of the many dangerous avenues of pressure on parents to consent to medicating their children or risk loosing parental custody and facing absurd charges of neglect or abuse of their children because they do not agree with a "diagnosis" by the child's school. Schools frequently use unvalidated and inappropriate "screening" tests such as the unscientific "Teen Screen" to diagnose children with so-called "mental disorders" and then use their authority to deny access to the school or services to children who are not medicated as they desire.
Further, schools which meet with resistance to this coerced medication of children with drugs which many parents know are ineffective and dangerous take it upon themselves to notify child protective agencies of what they believe to be medical neglect, parental abuse through lack of medication compliance or other invasive and inappropriate interferences with parental rights and constitutional protection for both parent and child.
S. 891 prohibits such coercive and invasive behavior on the part of schools and denies Federal funding to States whose schools behave in this way. In addition, this bill allows school personnel to share their observations, findings, etc., with parents, but prohibits them from using the fact that parents do not drug their children as a reason to bring charges against the parent of neglect or abuse and denying services to the child for this reason.
This is a necessary and important bill which protects children from institutional abuse and protects parental rights as well. Please consider becoming a co-sponsor of this bill in the Senate or introducing a sister bill in the House. Thank you for protecting our children from one of many sources of health fascism.
