1. Monsanto's genetically engineered sweet corn hasn't been tested for human safety, and it contains three different genetically engineered traits that have never been used in food eaten directly by people. It has been genetically engineered to produce pesticide and resist herbicide. 2.

Trust women to make the choices for their lives, their health and their families.

Over the past 20 years, researchers have found strong evidence that the brain's prefrontal cortex — where rational processes such as impulse control and understanding of long-range consequences takes place — was far from fully developed in teenagers. Research also showed that communication between the prefrontal cortex and other parts of the brain continues to improve as teens move into adulthood, affecting functions such as long-term planning, problem-solving and controlling emotions. Research also shows that adding anger, trauma, repeated exposure to violence, or chronic drug or alcohol use to the brain's developmental years will physically affect the brain. The latest research using MRI scans at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology indicates that the prefrontal cortex as well as other brain functions are not fully developed until the early to mid-20s, and perhaps later in young males. "Consensus is emerging that an 18-year-old is not the same person she or he will be at 25.... They don't look the same, feel the same, think the same, or act the same," writes MIT researcher Rae Simpson.
