Dear Friends, Here is some hopeful news about a bill to require labeling of genetically engineered foods and how you can help with just a few moments of your time.
John PS: The bill currently has 33 Cosponsors. Please see: http://www.thecampaign.org/ and: http://www.thecampaign.org/action.htm ~~~~~ Labeling Legislation Introduced to Congress! H.R.4814 Genetically Engineered Food Right to Know Act (Introduced in House) Dennis Kucinich, a Representative from Ohio, introduced legislation last month that would require labeling of food products which contain genetically engineered ingredients. In over 30 countries, consumers have the right to know if their foods contain genetically engineered ingredients . . . but the U.S. isn't one of those countries! It will be an uphill fight to get this labeling legislation passed. The biotech industry, including Monsanto, is lobbying hard against your right-to-know.
