Slingshot Against the Latest Drug Bill

There seems to be no end to bad legislation poking its head up in Congress when it comes to giveaways to the pharmaceutical industry. The latest involves a bill by Sen. Richard Burr to "encourage" the vaccine industry to take on bioterror agents. It would exempt regulatory deliberations from all freedom of information act requests and the federal advisory committee act, i.e., it would be done in "complete government secrecy." A new blog called Slingshot has a good rundown on the issue.
