Continuation of the Food-Safety Legislation

In this article "Funding fight looms over newly passed food-safety legislation'' they are talking about how after fighting for three votes in the house and two in the Senate they are finally waiting for the bill to be signed by president Obama.
Something that I found interesting was that there would have to pay $1.4 billion cost over the first five years and the Republicans taking over the house will not fund the bill. I wonder what they would do if they need help paying back that money.
After reading this article I feel happy because I have an idea that people are actually out there trying to keep our food safe. Having inspection schedules is a great way to see if our food is spoiled and to make sure it is not reaching where people can buy it.

Food-safety Legislation

The article ''In Sunday-evening surprise, Senate passes food-safety legislation'' is an article about the Senate passing the Food Safety and Modernization Act which is approved. After they would have to send the legislation to a House for a final approval.
After reading this article, I felt disgusted that we have no idea if our food is safe for us. Passing this legislation should be a good thing to the world,it will lower the chance of food borne illness. Also focus on prevention and improving our public health.
In my opinion passing this legislation will definitely improve food companies and how they handle the food. I think that they would inspect the foods and throw away unsafe and harmful foods rather then selling them and possibly having an illness. I wish that there would be a way for food to all be safe rather than unsafe.
