Dear Corporate and Government Leaders,

Genetically engineered food ingredients or crops should not be allowed on the market until: 

1) Independent safety testing demonstrates they have no harmful effects on human health or the environment, 

2) They are labeled to ensure the consumer's right-to-know, and 

3) The biotechnology corporations that manufacture them are held responsible for any harm.

If you care as much about the health and well-being of your consumers as much as you do your bottomline profit margin, this should be a no-brainer for you? Do you want your Kids and GrandKids being experimental guinea pigs? I don't! You have the opportunity to put integrity ahead of profit; to step up and be a LEADER; I hope you will do the RIGHT thing and not bury your heads to this vital issue!  


Sincerely

Julie Fischer
