Comment from Linda Granneman

The NAIS will not make food safer since most food-borne illnesses, such as e coli and salmonella, are due to food processing and handling practices - not live animals; It also will not protect us against bioterrorism - the proposed microchips and radio tags are easily reprogramed and large databases are easy targets for terrorists or other criminals. These are the 2 main reasons given to have NAIS. I am against them. It will be an invasion of my privacy and my property rights. I own a couple horses and take them somewhere to ride every weekend. I should not under the constitution be required to report my activities and destinations of these horses to the government.
