Monsanto. Lets label everything

Those Monsanto clowns never stop. We just have to stop them. The ball is in your court.

Stop Monsanto’s Sneak Attack!

A controversial rider has been attached to the U.S. House of Representative’s 2013 Agriculture Appropriations bill that would make it impossible for organic and non-GMO consumers and farmers to fight Monsanto in court (as we did on GMO alfalfa and sugar beets) when the US Department of Agriculture illegally approves new genetically engineered crops that could, as the courts have ruled, eliminate “a farmer’s choice to grow non-genetically engineered crops, or a consumer’s choice to eat non-genetically engineered food.”

Join the Organic Consumers’ Union in fighting M0nsanto.  We’re gonna have to do this again and again, but we have to stand tall.  Our future depends on it.

The vote we expected last week has been delayed until after the July 4th recess. Already, more than 15,000 of you have taken action, along with over 50,000 of our allies in other organizations. Please join together as we raise our voices loud and clear.

There’s still time to stop Monsanto’s sneak attack!
