IN VERMONT, the GMO battle between the people and corporate greed rages on. Vermont Governor Peter Shumlin signed GMO Labeling Bill H.112 into law. But the Grocery Manufacturers Association (GMA), made up of companies like Kellogg's, Nestlé... and Monsanto, seems to be allergic to the democratic process - and fearing that consumers will reject genetically engineered foods - has announced that it will sue Vermont to overturn the law. This suit is in addition to their attempts at the federal level to outlaw states' rights to pass laws mandating GMO labeling.
Vermont vows to fight. And you can help. The state has created Food Fight Fund VT to accept donations from anyone who wishes to help VT implement and administer its new law, and mount a powerful defense against the GMA lawsuit. Learn more and donate here: http://www.foodfightfundvt.org/
