I encourage folks to sign on to the <a href="http://www.equalexchange.com/sign-on-to-national-organic-coalition-letter" rel="nofollow">national coalition letter</a> that you've provided. I also invite any roaster, retailer, broker, importer, coop or fan of organic coffees to offer their voice here, where other folks can see the scope, and breadth, and depth of this policy's effects. It touches upon countless thousands of farmers, and most everyone in coffee's path from tree to cup. Thank you, Rodney!
