Dennis Kucinich “Right To Know” GMO Bill Motivated By Alfalfa Seed Ruling
Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, July 1st, 2010 in Farming, Food & Drink, Politicians.
Ohio representative Dennis Kucinich has introduced three bills meant to educate and protect from the presence of genetically modified organisms in a product, H.R. 5577–The Genetically Engineered Food Right to Know Act, H.R. 5578–Genetically Engineered Safety Act and H.R. 5579–Genetically Engineered Technology Farmer Protection Act.
H.R. 5577 would amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, the Federal Meat Inspection Act, and the Poultry Products Inspection Act to require any food containing GMOs or produced with genetically engineered material be labeled accordingly. H.R. 5578 would prohibit the open air cultivation of genetically engineered pharmaceutical or industrial crops, while H.R. 5579 would provide economical protection for farmers that may be harmed from genetically engineered seeds, plants or animals.
