Exactly one week after Americans celebrated Independence Day and the 4th of July, Monsanto and their pesticide and junk food allies at the Grocery Manufacturers Association (GMA) are once again declaring war on the GMO labeling movement in the U.S. Today, lobbyists from the same corporations that helped defeat Prop 37 last year in California are meeting behind closed doors in Washington DC to try to kill efforts to win GMO labeling in the U.S. for good. Last week, The Hill reported that the GMA is calling for the secret meeting because the growing success of the GMO labeling movement has created an “unprecedented period of turmoil” for the chemical, biotech and junk food companies that the GMA represents. Right now Monsanto and the GMA are stepping up their efforts to defeat us and we can’t back down. Help us continue to fight their misinformation campaign. We need to continue the fight without wavering, spreading the truth about the evil corporate monster responsible for the entire debacle. MONSANTO MUST GO.
