Ask Your Legislators to Introduce Bills to Label GMOs!
Click
here to send your legislators a letter
today!National polls show that the vast majority of consumers want foods that contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs) to be clearly labeled. For more than 10 years, conscientious Senators and Members of Congress have introduced federal legislation for mandatory GMO labels, but the issue has never been voted on in Congress.
It's time to take the movement for truth-in-labeling and consumers' right-to-know to state legislatures and local governments, to grocery stores, restaurants, schools and hospitals and demand that they put labels on GMO foods now!
Click here to send your legislators a letter asking them to introduce legislation making GMO labels mandatory in your state!
