grimrose_eilwynnI signed this petition and thought I'd give you the chance to:
https://www.change.org/p/richard-shelby-jeff-sessions-vote-for-gmo-labeling
If you haven't heard of the DARK Act, its title has actually been created by ordinary food consumers. They're calling it the Deny Americans the Right to Know Act.
It sets out a series of regulations on food labeling. While this may seem good on the surface, it also bans all states from requiring GMO labeling on their food. Just to be clear, this means that if it passes, power will be taken away from the states and companies will only be able to tell us that our food has been genetically modified when they feel like it.
Wherever you stand on GMOs, states should not be banned from requiring food labeling. I think we all can agree people at least have the right to know what's in their food, and individual states have a right to regulate their own food labeling.
Please speak out against the DARK Act. It passed the House. We need to make sure it doesn't pass the Senate.
