Support mandatory labeling of genetically engineered foods (GMOs).
We have a right to know how the food we eat and feed our families is produced, but under current FDA regulations, we don’t have that ability when it comes to genetically engineered foods (GMOs).
More than forty countries, including Russia and China, already require labels on genetically engineered foods. And a recent poll found that nearly all Democrats (93%), Independents (90%), and Republicans (89%) support labeling of GMOs. At a time when partisan rancor dominates the public conversation, there are few topics that can muster such overwhelming support.
And although over 1 million people submitted comments in favor of labeling, the FDA has yet to act.
President Obama, please listen to the American public and speak out in favor of the mandatory labeling of genetically engineered foods.

https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/pet...-gmos/nkWHZ2VmRequire all Genetically Modified Foods to be labeled as such.
Genetically modified foods are a recent technology and are already in many commercial foods Americans consume today. While they may have benefits, these genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have not been studied rigorously enough in their potential human health impacts. Therefore, it should be the consumer's right to know whether the food they choose to purchase contains all or partly genetically modified organisms as ingredients.
Although certified Organic foods are labeled as such and contain no GMOs, the consumer does not know whether they are buying genetically modified foods when they can't or choose not to buy Organic.
Petition to require food companies to label their foods according to their contents in terms of containing genetically modified organisms.

Corporations have Patented our Food with GMO's and now Control of our food supply. What happens if they decide there is a shortage, raise prices and sue your only local farmer. They have injected and altered are food. They have won the right to lie in advertisements and food corporatioins have won the right to lie about what is in our food. What's next.
We are going up against food corporations powerful enough to sue whole Nations, infiltrate the FDA, our court systems and dictate Government policy.

https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/pet...-gmos/LT4LYrmK...Prevent Genetically Engineered & Modified Organisms from being introduced into our bodies, food supply & environment
Consumption of Genetically Modified/Engineered Foods, Plants, Animals & Vaccines have not been conclusively proven to be harmless to humans. Animals fed GMO corn have been rendered INFERTILE and have grown large tumors. GMO pollen has contaminated the crops of unsuspecting farmers whose seed stock and livelihood are now being destroyed by GMO Patent holders. Genetically modified salmon have been released into the wild to breed. Pandora's Box. These heinous actions constitute an assault upon our farmers, our bodies, against Mother Earth, against Creation. Additionally, many European countries refuse to accept US crops because of GMO contamination therefore causing economic hardship to our agricultural business. No one is monitoring this vast experiment, this great transgression. STOP NOW
