Do you want to know what you're eating? Do you want to see GMO foods labeled? If so, you need to act now!
Last week the DARK Act passed through committee and the House is expected to vote as early as this week. The DARK Act would undermine many of the key aspects of Connecticut's current GMO labeling law. Including the virtual elimination of the FDA's ability to formulate a national GMO labeling law and the legitimization of the current, highly flawed, voluntary labeling system.
To keep this destructive act from being passed contact your Congressperson either via email or phone (listed below) and encourage them to vote NO to the DARK Act (HR 1599).
