Guest guest Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Hi,A so-called 'Monsanto rider,' quietly slipped into the multi-billion dollar FY 2013 Agricultural Appropriations bill, would require - not just allow, but require - the Secretary of Agriculture to grant a temporary permit for the planting or cultivation of a genetically engineered crop, even if a federal court has ordered the planting be halted until an Environmental Impact Statement is completed. All the farmer or the biotech producer has to do is ask. That's why I signed a petition to The United States House of Representatives, The United States Senate, and President Barack Obama, which says: " Stop the Monsanto Rider. Unless the senate or a citizen's army of farmers and consumers can stop them, the House of Representatives is likely to ram this dangerous rider through any day now. " Will you sign this petition?
