Tell Rhode Island lawmakers you want clear, on package labeling for all foods partially or entirely genetically engineered.
Why is this important?
Genetically engineered (GE) foods have been brought to market without any long term safety studies. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not require or conduct safety studies on GE foods, instead relying on voluntary safety consultations and minimal research done by the companies who create GE foods. Labeling GE foods is necessary to allow consumers to make informed decisions about the food they buy and consume, as well as for tracking any potential adverse effects or allergies.
