QUICK LINKS
STOP DEREGULATION OF GENETICALLY ENGINEERED ALFALFA
Contact President Obama nowfood and water watch
Near the end of December we alerted the membership of the USDA's intentions of releasing its prohibition on the sale and cultivation of genetically engineered alfalfa. Last Friday we forwarded the National Cooperative Grocers Association's petition to the USDA. We encourage our membership to consider this petition from Food & Water Watch as well which will go directly to President Obama in support of stopping the USDA from any deregulation of genetically engineered alfalfa.
 
Thanks you for your considerations and attention to this issue. The USDA, under pressure from Monsanto and other large agribusiness interests has decided to act on this to allow GE alfalfa seed sales for spring planting and time is of the essence in making your voice heard.

Sign the petition.
