My family and I have consumed raw milk all of our lives and haven't been sickened by it even once. We need to make sure the dairies stay up to code, however. We also need to allow people the freedom to eat and drink healthier choices.

I don't understand the system we have here in America where we allow sugary soft drinks (basically poison) to be sold in mass quantities anywhere, anytime but we are so strict about something such as raw milk that is so good for a person's health. Members of Congress, please vote yes on both HB 4307 and HB 4308 and help support or freedoms that we hold so dear here in America.
