Connecticut is celebrating Tuesday after becoming the first US state to pass GMO Labeling in to law. This landmark event has sparked a wave of support from around the US as a number of other states aim to follow Connecticut over the next year. The bill received bipartisan support, passing the Senate unanimously and winning a 134-3 vote in the House.
The bill was amended to be stronger last weekend – as GMO Free CT stated on their Facbook page; “the bill was re-amended by the Senate on Saturday and was approved today by the House. The trigger is now four states (i.e four other states have to pass similar legislation before bill is acted on) and the population size was reduced. The biggest amendment the Senate made, and by far the most important, was the removal of the exemption for farmers making less than $1.5 million dollars which really challenged the integrity of the bill. This is a compromise, but one that strengthens the integrity of the bill now. This will truly help other states move forward which will assist us with the trigger.”

Monsanto Claims GMO crops are not harmful. This is the biggest lie in our world today. Below are photos of mice who developed tumors as a result of being fed GMO foods. I think it is important for the awareness of the dangers of GMOs to be understood by All. These poor dear rats were fed GMO food. This pains me to see this photo, as it should everyone. If GMO foods are doing this to rats, imagine what they are doing to our bodies and our children’s bodies. For more photos of GMO effects on humans, visit http://gmoevidence.com. Monsanto and other GMO companies are poisoning our earth, our water, our land, our bodies, our animals. We must act today to stop this atrocity! Petition your Senators and Congressman to mandate GMO labeling and stop supporting Monsanto.
