Upcoming SoCal Millions Against Monsanto Events
April 19, 2024 |
Hello SoCal anti-GMO
activists,
As part of OCA’s Millions Against Monsanto Truth-in-Labeling Campaign we are
encouraging activists in our network to plan their own campaign events with
others in their area. This email is to inform you that there is an upcoming
event near you, organized by grassroots organizers who care about the
GE-labeling issue as much as you do.
You may have heard that
California is poised to be the first state with mandatory GMO labeling laws
through the 2012 CA Ballot Initiative process.
Polls show that we have the support to get this initiative
on the ballot and voted in – over 70% of those polled supported mandatory
labeling – but Monsanto and their minions have billions of dollars invested in
GMOs and millions of dollars they are willing to spend to defeat this
initiative.
These meetings are for activists to come together to learn about the
initiative, how we suggest being activists in your community and organizing
into a new cohesive group.
Please come ready to “roll your
sleeves up” and get to work on what I’m sure will be a historic ballot measure.
Go to GMO Free Southern California for all events in SoCal!
Also, there are additional meetings planned for the future, so be
on the look out for your area but if you don’t see your city listed please
contact Stacey Hall at
gmofreesocal@gmail.com
to coordinate an event near you.
