Tom Koos

Homeland Security

More than a year ago the 9/11 Commissioners graded homeland security improvements since September 11th; their report card was riddled with D's and F's.

Since then, several events have reminded us that we cannot afford to ignore these failing grades. A proposal to sell our ports to a Dubai company called attention to the fact that we do not screen all cargo on ships and commercial airlines. Terrorist attacks on rail systems in Mumbai, following similar attacks in London and Madrid, killed hundreds of innocent civilians. Our British allies disrupted a plot to blow up airliners bound to the United States underscoring our vulnerability in the sky.

Tom Koos is announcing his plan to make food safer by taking on the big food companies and food importers on behalf of American consumers and producers. First he would finally implement country-of-origin labeling so families can learn the source of their food and have the option of choosing domestically-raised and grown food. He would also strengthen the Food and Drug Administration's oversight over the safety of American and imported food.

Tom Koos is a strong supporter of our military and wants America to celebrate the services of all of our proud, hardworking serivcemen and women with by supporting large homecoming parades for all those who have served in Iraq as soon as posssible.

Until that happens, Tom Koos supports his fellow candidate, Joe Biden's five point plan for Iraq.

1. Establish One Iraq, with Three Regions
2. Share Oil Revenues
3. Convene International Conference, Enforce Regional Non-Aggression Pact
