Read up on “H.R. 875: Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009” pushed by Rosa DeLauro, whose husband is a “former” Monsanto lobbyist.

I just looked at that bill and did a search on the word "seed". Didn't find a single mention. Either my search function is screwed up or you are mistaken in your claim.

The Heirloom seed component isn’t in that bill. Monsanto already has patent rights over any plant cross pollinated by any of their seeds, and the ability to sue any farmer who saves seeds from any Monsanto crop.
