On the recordMay 23, 2006

Reclaiming my time, the comments of the gentleman from Wisconsin make it very clear that Congress has a role here in affirming the position of consumer representatives on the National Organic Standards Board. It was Congress that created this board. It was Congress that wanted to ensure the integrity of the organic label. So I am asking my colleagues to vote ``yes'' to protect the integrity of the organic food label. I would once again say that the Consumers Union has taken this position that they believe that the integrity of the consumer public interest positions have been compromised by the appointment.
