Mike Pompeo (R- <br /> Kan.). The bill, dubbed the Deny Americans the Right to Know(DARK) Act, is a desperate <br /> attempt by Monsanto and Big Food to keep consumers in the dark about what's in their <br /> food—including"accepted allowable" residues of cancer-causing glyphosate. <br /> It is critical that we keep the pressure on Monsanto and the Junk Food Giants by continuing <br /> to launch state GMO labeling campaigns. That's why OCA is leading the new GMO <br /> labeling campaign in Maine this legislative season, and lending background support to <br /> other New England states, including Massachusetts,whose grassroots coalitions are <br /> working fast and furiously to pass GMO labeling laws before Congress moves to <br /> stomp them out. <br /> This latest report from WHO should have every consumer alarmed—and ready to fight <br /> back. <br /> DEADLINE MARCH 31: Support GMO labeling laws today and your donation will <br /> be matched by an anonymous donor. <br /> TOP NEWS OF THE WEEK <br /> It's Back.
