Urge Obama to Reverse Monsanto Mandatetake-back-your-food-web.jpg
We should support Congressman Kucinich's Genetically Engineered Food Right to Know Act, but an act of Congress isn't necessary to safety test and label genetically engineered foods. President Obama could simply direct the FDA to reverse the Monsanto Mandate forced on us by Bush-Quayle, and put an end to the idea that genetically engineered foods and crops are trustworthy and don't need to be labeled. Please support the Truth in Labeling Act's citizen petition by writing to President Obama and the FDA. READ THE CITIZEN PETITION and then TAKE ACTION

Contact your Senators and ask them to co-sponsor S 3123, Farm to School Programs Act! CLICK HERE  to take action. Please visit the JC Farm2School Coalition website.
