Four hundred and seventy-five groups from all 50 states spanning the entirety of the American food supply chain sent a letter to the US House of Representatives urging members to vote in favor of the Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act.
The groups, representing the Coalition for Safe and Affordable Food, ask Congress to support the bill which would create a federal law on GMO labeling, establishing a national, uniform standard label that will preempt state laws such as the one in Vermont.
