The Bill is new, but the battle by Ron Paul against mandatory Mental Health Screening and the drugs used in our children is not. There are 5 co-sponsors to date, and my congressman is not one of them. He will be receiving a letter from me.

NaturalNews) Rep. Ron Paul has introduced the Parental Consent Act to protect families from mandatory "mental health screening" -- a thinly-veiled attempt by Big Pharma to drug expectant mothers and new moms with dangerous psychiatric drugs.
Here's the full text of the speech given by Ron Paul in the House of Representatives, April 30, 2009:
Madam Speaker, I rise to introduce the Parental Consent Act. This bill forbids Federal funds from being used for any universal or mandatory mental-health screening of students without the express, written, voluntary, informed consent of their parents or legal guardians. This bill protects the fundamental right of parents to direct and control the upbringing and education of their children.
A very similar bill was introduced by Ron Paul in 2007.

Once more, the USA Congress is considering a bill to help protect families from being pressured by schools to screen young people for mental health problems. And once more, MindFreedom is issuing an alert to encourage all USA citizens to contact your congressional delegation and support this important bill. In the past, the bill has sailed through the US House, but has gotten stuck in a US Senate committee now run by Senator Ted Kennedy.

Screening may mean thousands of more young people placed on psychiatric drugs without adequate advocacy, information, or alternatives.
