In addition to being completely unnecessary, the rider represents an unprecedented attack on U.S. judicial review, which is an essential element of U.S. law and provides a critical check on government decisions that may negatively impact human health, the environment or livelihoods. This also raises potential jurisdictional concerns with the Senate Agriculture and Judiciary Committees that merited hearings by the Committees before its consideration.

This time around, the protection rider is even more troubling because of the recent approval of “2nd generation GMOs”. These virtually untested genetically modified seeds were created to survive the spraying of an even more deadly chemical than glyophosate, the previous poison of choice. Isoxaflutole (IFT) will soon be dousing the breadbasket of America, despite the fact that the EPA KNOWS IT CAUSES CANCER. The EPA’s fact sheet on IFT is nothing short of terrifying – it’s a must-read.

That’s right – it is classified as a “probable human carcinogen” and the EPA has warned that it is likely to contaminate soil, air, and groundwater. If you live any place downwind or downstream of a GMO farm, you are in the new cancer zone.

And Congress – our duly elected representation – is saying that you have NO LEGAL RECOURSE with this extension of the rider.

Despite the fact that public outcry did nothing to change things the last time around, we need to rally up and contact the offices of our senators. Let them know that you will not support a senator who does not support your health and well-being and chooses instead to offer a free pass to big business. Be louder this time around – spread the word via this article and any others you can find. Share this on your social media. Sign petitions. Write letters. Protest. They may pass it anyway, but we CAN still make others aware of the depth of the corruption and the incestuous relationship between biotech and our government.

You can find contact information for your senators and representatives HERE.

Petitions against this rider can be found HERE and HERE.

It’s time to get involved and let the criminals in the Capitol know that we are watching them.

GMO foods are a problem but, they are not forcing us to eat them yet. It is still a choice. I know some will cite economics. Even then, there is a choice. GMO foods would rot, not sure they rot, on the shelves and then disappear permanently without the support of consumers. We need to look to our purchases and not gov't to fix problems like these. Gov't is broken. Are we broken too?

Are we getting the gov't we deserve? Looking at our protestations, the answer would be no. Look at our actions and the reality emerges. We do not walk our talk. Why should anyone listen to us?..........Yet

The dollar, in USA, is the last real vote we have. I think this obtains to other countries as well. Especially Western countries. If we do not use the vote that counts, we are abdicating a very real, world changing, power that we do have.

Don't eat crap! That this is a challenge is sad.

I think ET probably figures this issue is ours to handle as well.

I do support Rob about hounding representatives. They are a cowardly bunch and pressure on them makes for some fancy dancing. Hard to get handouts if you don't get elected.

It is, especially given that a lot of people don't think twice about what to put in their mouth's.
And those that do don't have the means to pay for anything healthier that the off the shelf specials ..
