Bernie Sanders Speaks for the People on GMO Food Labeling [View all]

It's enormously freeing for an elected official NOT to be dependent on Corporate Funding.

They are free to actually represent the people who elected them.

90% of Americans WANT their foods labeled.

Yet they cannot get their government to listen

64 other countries have this right, but the US does not.

There is a bill in Congress right now that is a Monstanto Dream Come True.

It is called the 'Dark Act'. It would make it illegal TO label foods.

Congress is being pressured by Monsanto Lobbyists to deny the American people the right to know what they are eating.

If anything highlights the corrupt influence of Money in Politics, it is the stark difference between those who are NOT corporate funded and those who ARE.

Bernie represents the people. And is not afraid to say so.

Get this poisonous money out of our Electoral System.

I have a feeling Bernie will be making it a huge issue in this campaign.

There is no "The Dark Act." That's anti-GMO propaganda. HuckleB Aug 2015 #22
