The Beginning of the End

SUPPORT THE OCA & OCF

Thanks to the millions of you who have worked so hard over the past few years (20 years for some of us!), we are celebrating today.

We hope you are, too.

The passage yesterday of this country’€™s first trigger-free, no-strings-attached GMO labeling law, in Vermont, is a testament to the power of grassroots movement-building.

It’€™s also a blow to Monsanto, Big Food and every state and federal politician who has turned his or her back on the citizens of this country, in order to support the profits of huge corporations.

This law would not have passed without your tremendous financial support of California’€™s Proposition 37 ballot initiative, and Washington State’€™s I-522 ballot initiative. The narrow losses in those states emboldened citizens all over this country, and helped propel the grassroots to a win yesterday in Vermont.

This is just the beginning of the end of Monsanto. We will have to fight legal challenges by the Gene and Junk Food Giants, and attempts by indentured politicians in Washington to kill Vermont’€™s laws.

The best way to do that is to push forward. With your help, we will win a state GMO labeling ballot initiative in Oregon in November, and initiatives to ban GMO crops in several Oregon counties this year. Thank you!
