Obama Betrays Campaign Promise to Label Genetically Engineered Food
In 2007, Senator Obama, campaigning for the presidency in the Democratic primary, promised to label genetically engineered food.
Now, if you write the Obama for America campaign about GMO labels, you get this response:
"Genetically modified crops hold out the promise of benefits like increased production and reduced reliance on pesticides. At the same time, some Americans want more information to help them choose their food. President Obama understands these concerns and is considering additional steps in this area."
What? How can he flip his position like that? What makes him
believe Monsanto's lies? Why isn't he listening to the 9 out of 10
voters who want GMOs labeled? Is there anything we can do to get him
back on our side before November?
The first step is to give Barack Obama a piece of our minds! Bill
Maher did on his show last week, when he called the President out for
breaking his campaign promise on GMO labels and putting Monsanto's
Michael Taylor in charge of food safety. Please tell the Obama for
America campaign what you think about broken promises.
