Senate stall to blame for slow egg recall?

          This article talks about the contamination of the eggs. Apparently the senate has been pushing the food safety inspection further back on the list and it has now come back to bite them. Over six million eggs have been sent back due to serious contaminations of salmonella. Many people have been infected and the number is on the rise. This issue points directly at the senate and many people feel they are to blame. They feel that if congress would've handled this situation sooner 2,000 people wouldn't be sick with salmonella poisoning.
        
          This relates to the constitution because it just shows the people on what problems can occur in the process of making of bill become a law. There are thousands of pending bills that are still waiting to be looked at and sometimes bills prove to be more important than others. Obviously senate didn't take this particular bill as important and have yet to pay it any attention and now thousands of people are sick.

          I believe that senate is completely at fault for this problem, but also the person who had created the bill. If the creator of the bill would have made a stronger argument senate would have taken it more serious and this problem most likely wouldn't exist. Senate should have been thinking out of the box, if the bill writer din't make a strong argument they should have been thinking of consequences that may occur if they pushed it back, but they didn't. Which is why they are both to blame.
