The Mothers Act
is pending legislation that will indoctrinate
hundreds of thousands of mothers into taking
dangerous psych drugs. It is a great example of
how the Big Pharma lobby controls Congress to
the detriment of health, as well as needlessly
and dramatically inflating the costs of our
health care system for everyone. Like any piece
of legislation it purports to address a
troubling issue – in this case the mood distress
of mothers following birth known as postpartum
depression. It is true that 10% - 15% of women
need some assistance in dealing with this topic
– but the majority of them sure don’t need it
from Big Pharma. That is the Big Lie.
The Mothers Act (S. 1375:
Mom's Opportunity to Access Health, Education,
Research, and Support for Postpartum Depression
Act) has the net affect of reclassifying the
natural process of pregnancy and birth as a
mental disorder that requires the use of
unproven and extremely dangerous psychotropic
medications (which can also easily harm the
child). Urgent consumer action (see below) is
needed to stop this atrocity, as the Senate
could now vote any day.
It is my understanding that the process of
birth, the intimate bonding of mother and child,
and the placing of significant responsibility on
the father is all part of a healthy culture and
the backbone of the fabric that makes strong
families and consequently our great nation. I
fail to see why we need laws that force health
care professionals to emphasize the idea that
the process is some type of mental illness
affecting 80% of all women – what a bogus pile
of crap.
The Mothers Act proposes sweeping and dramatic
changes in the delivery of pregnancy care by all
health professionals. It demands that health
professionals indoctrinate pregnant women into
mental health treatment options for mild
depression-like symptoms experienced during or
following pregnancy, including moderate symptoms
they call “baby blues” which they say affects
80% of pregnant women. In other words, this is a
massive federate health mandate to get the
majority of pregnant and nursing mothers on
psych drugs – a new target market for Big Pharma.
Mental Illness
The bill was obviously written by the Big
Pharma lobby and its passage into law would
be considered laughable except that it is
actually happening. The bill seeks to
require taxpayer-funded grants to treat
postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, as
defined in the latest edition of the
Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental
Disorders. For those of you who don’t know,
this is the manual of vaguely defined mental
health issues used by Big Pharma to allow
the sale of their expensive psych drugs and
get payment from Medicare and Medicaid at
taxpayer expense. While some people
certainly need help, this system racks up
billions in fraudulent sales per year –
including the sale of dangerous
antipsychotic medications to our children.
The Big Pharma lobby last year spent tens of
millions to ensure the government would
continue to cover vulnerable children so
they could capitalize on this blatant scam.
As far as the Mothers Act goes, how can
taxpayers be expected to pay for drug treatments
when the problem that isn’t even understood? As
the bill freely acknowledges “The causes of
postpartum depression are complex and unknown.”
In a mysterious leap of faith the bill says that
this condition requires medication to treat it
even though such medication has never been
proven clinically effective and carries serious
side effect risks for the mother and baby,
including cardiovascular birth defects.
The bill goes on to set up a system of
taxpayer-funded grants to pay for the
treatments. It even commits you the taxpayer to
funding “clinical research for the development
and evaluation of new treatments for postpartum
conditions, including new biological agents.”
This means taxpayers will now foot the bill of
Big Pharma drug development including the most
dangerous new category of totally unproven
pie-in-the-sky biological drugs that cost
hundreds of billions of dollars to develop and
can irreparably injure within minutes!
Yes, and once you have paid a fortune to develop
these biological gene-altering agents then you
will pay the drug companies price so that they
can be freely dispensed to hundreds of thousands
of pregnant and nursing mothers. Taxpayers will
be on the hook for tens of billions of wasted
dollars.
Immediate Consumer Action is Needed
The Mothers Act has already passed the House
(H.R. 20, the Melanie Blocker Stokes Postpartum
Depression, Research and Care Act). Word has it
that it is being snuck out of the HELP committee
on Thursday or Friday of this week and may be
rammed through the Senate without any debate
before the Easter break.
Rather unbelievably up to this point is that the
cause of defeating this legislation has fallen
onto the shoulders of one young mother, Amy
Philo. When she struggled with postpartum stress
she was placed on the very same psych drugs
advocated for use in the Mothers Act
legislation. She began having violent thoughts
towards her child and suicidal thinking. Her not
very bright doctor had her double and then
triple her dose, nearly killing her. She is
lucky to be alive today and wants to warn other
mothers of the dangers inherent in the Mothers
Act. Click here if you would like
to view her YouTube story.
Immediate consumer action is needed to stop the
Big Pharma-crafted Mothers Act. Here are the two
action steps you can take right now to help make
a difference:
1) Go to my
CapWiz page and with two clicks of a
mouse send an opposition letter to your
Senators.
2)
Sign this petition, which is being used
to pressure Senators on the HELP committee.
