In September 2011, we submitted a petition to the FDA calling for the mandatory labeling of genetically-engineered (GE) foods. By March 2012, in just 180 days, we achieved our goal of 1 million comments! However, after an underwhelming response from the FDA, we cannot stop there; please help us build awareness and support for this important issue. Show your support by adding your comment to the petition at: http://justlabelit.org/takeaction.

We have joined forces with hundreds of partner organizations and thousands of consumers representing the healthcare community, farmers, concerned parents, businesses, food and farming organizations, environmentalists and the faith-based community. Join us as we raise awareness of this vital petition to the FDA, and please share with your friends and colleagues.

Thank you for your support and action!
