Earlier this week, four representatives from HSMG went to Washington D.C. to meet with lawmakers and oppose the bill. They need our help and support.

Check out this link to the president of The Handmade Soapmaker's Guild blog:

There is a bill that will soon be introduced into congress that will radically change how we label products, and may put some of us out of business. This link will get you started. There is an explanation of the bill, along with a sample letter that you can write to your representatives, and lots of other links to explore.
