Don't be left in the DARK - call your representative today!!

Congress is set to vote on the DARK act today (HB 1599).  This would negate any state GE food labeling laws and nullify local regulations against the use of certain GE crops and pesticides.  It is critical that we flood the capital switchboards today.  I just made my call through the Center for Food Safety.  It was painless and took less than 30 seconds.  Monsanto is formidable, but not  invincible.  Let's stand together to support our right to know what's in the food we eat.  Tell everyone you know.  THANK YOU!!!

From the Center for Food Safety:

You can dial 1-888-894-1033 directly to be connected.
When you call, you can say something like: "I am calling to urge you to oppose HR 1599, also known as the DARK Act. This bill would FOREVER take away our right to choose what we feed our children, farmer’s rights to grow their crop of choice, and our right to protect ourselves and our communities from dangerous chemicals. Please vote no on HR 1599 and instead support mandatory labeling of genetically engineered foods."
