Stop Monsanto's New GMO Corn
I don’t want to see more genetically engineered (GMO) crops. Approving Monsanto’s new GMO corn would mean even more toxic pesticides like Roundup and dicamba in our environment, putting our farmers and the public’s health at risk.
At the very least, the USDA should complete a full environmental impact statement on Monsanto's dicamba-tolerant corn, and reject the crop if it isn't proven to be safe for the environment or human health.

Why is this important?
Monsanto has a new genetically engineered (GMO) corn, altered to withstand the herbicide dicamba — a harsh chemical that threatens the health of the public, the livelihoods of farmers and the environment.
The USDA is considering Monsanto's proposal right now and is accepting public comments. We must ask the USDA to complete a full environmental review and ensure our health and environmental safety before approving Monsanto's new GMO corn!
