For any interested parties, here is a link to House Resolution 193. It has not left committee, but thought I’d give you a heads up, just in case. It has to do with the registration of saved seed with the Secretary of Agriculture. While it appears it just applies to seeds saved from patented, engineered crops, anytime the government seeks to impose registration and fees on seeds, I’m suspicious:

Thanks for the link. Just the term “saved seed” is patently ridiculous. The only way they can hope to really control all this stuff is if we all suddenly become The Borg.
