The Alliance for Natural Health figures that:
"The only possible 'quick fix' would be a unanimous consent agreement in the Senate to strike that revenue-raising provision from the bill - but Sen. Tom Coburn (R-OK) has already stated that he will oppose, so unanimity will be impossible."ANH believes it is unlikely that the Senate will return to a debate on S.510, given its full agenda. Its only other option is to "allow the bill to die at the end of this Congress [which means] a new Food Safety Bill will be introduced next year."
After S.510 passed, President Obama issued a statement: "I urge the House - which has previously passed legislation demonstrating its strong commitment to making our food supply safer - to act quickly on this critical bill, and I applaud the work that was done to ensure its broad bipartisan passage in the Senate."
Apparently, the Senate moved too quickly. Their overreach only supports the natural foods movement assertion that the entire bill is over-reaching as the federal government seeks complete control over local foods.
