Monsanto: Extinction - A GMO Primer

H/T to @RachaelAshe and @EdibleVancouver for this:

Will Small Food Producers Suffer the Same Fate as Small Toy Makers? CSPIA, Food Safety & the Destruction of Small Business

Congress is at it again, with a new draft food safety bill expected to go to legislative hearing June 3rd. While the details have yet to be worked out, it's looking very similar to HR 759, which suffered from the usual one-size fits all approach coupled with overly broad language.

Why is this a big deal?

The End of Small Farms, Part II - HR 759 is in committee, worse than HR 875 (the Monsanto bill)

Our food freedom is under attack! HR 759 has eclipsed HR 875 as a danger to America's small farmers. Currently in committee (and more likely to pass), NOW is the time to act to stop this threat to our freedom to buy, grow and eat real foods. A vote is expected by Memorial day.

The End of Small Farms? What you should know (and DO) about HR 875, HR 759, NAIS and Monsanto

What is NAIS?

America's small farmers are under attack through a series of bills presented under the guise of "food safety." I don't want to lose my freedom to grow, buy and eat real foods. Let's fight for our small farmers who not only need our protection and support, but actual freeing from government intrusion, control and harm.
