One Million Strong: Record-Breaking Comments Delivered to FDA to Label GE Foods
Congratulations, together, we have made history. We now stand more than one million strong in asking the FDA to label genetically engineered (GE) foods. Today, March 27 is the date that the FDA is required to respond to the petition and it took us less than 180 days to accumulate a record breaking number of public comments—a testament to the power of our collective voices to demand our right to know what’s in our food. This campaign’s strength is due to the over 500 diverse partner organizations who helped galvanize the American people to this moment.
We know that one million is just a start. Today, a new national survey commissioned by Just Label It reveals that more than nine out of 10 of Americans across the political spectrum supports labeling food that has been genetically engineered. The new infographic below is a compelling visual that shares the results of the survey data.
Will you spread the word about this infographic and today’s important milestone by sharing it to Facebook or Twitter?
Stay tuned as we now work to make sure that the FDA and Washington knows that one million Americans are watching to make sure they deliver.
