Safeway and Kroger say no to GMO salmon: Will Costco follow?Kroger and Safeway, the two largest national grocery chains, have made commitments not to sell GMO salmon. The FDA has not yet given this product the scrutiny it deserves and may fail the public, wild salmon and fishing communities everywhere if it approves genetically engineered salmon. Worse, the FDA will probably not require it to be labeled. Because of pressure from consumers, 60 grocery chains representing over 9,000 stores nationwide have committed not to sell GMO Salmon. Now we are asking you to turn up the heat on Craig Jelinek – CEO of Costco – one of the largest retailers of seafood in the U.S. Tell him not to sell GE salmon.2,131 of 3,000 SignaturesCreated by Peter Stocker

"Passage of The Madison Holleran Law."On January 17, 2014 a former student of mine took her own life. Madison Holleran was a freshman at U Penn, and she was also an extremely talented runner on U Penn's track team. Her suicide left a void in the hearts of so many people across the United States. This law would allow us to keep Madison's legacy alive, and help other young adults from choosing suicide as a way of escaping the pressures of college expectations.22 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Edward G Modica

Stop Senator Wyden's Ancient Forests Logging BillsSenate bills 1301 and 1784 would undermine the Northwest Forest Plan, the Endangered Species Act (ESA), and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) across Oregon's National Forests and BLM O & C lands to prop up "too big to fail" mega tree fiber operations owned by some of the wealthiest families in Oregon. Senator Wyden's goal is to more than double current tree fiber extraction levels upon 10 million acres of publicly owned federal lands throughout Oregon. SB 1301 would sunset in 2029 and SB 1784 has no sunset date. Current laws are already failing to recover 3 iconic endangered Northwest forest species - the Coho salmon, marbled murrelet and the Northern spotted owl - from extinction. Senator Wyden's tree fiber extraction bills, 1301 and 1784, could place the nail in the coffins of these 3 ESA listed species and Oregon's last stands of ancient forests.
