This http://www.westonaprice.org/federalupdate/aa2009/06feb09.html prompted me to write to my Congressman participating in the House Energy and Commerce Committee (Ed Markey). If this issue is important to you, please do the same. :)

The pasteurization process does remove some beneficial things from milk. Its not raw milk that gets people sick, but poor conditions that animals are kept in.

We've been buying raw (grass fed) milk for about 9 months now and have been very happy with it (aside from health benefits, Brian is able to drink it being lactose intolerant). I've had friends drinking it for a while, but it was seeing Alton Brown's Good Eats on Dairy, reading http://www.amazon.com/Real-Food-What-Eat-Why/dp/1596911441 and Omnivore's Dilemma that pushed us over the edge ultimately.
