Although there has been very little media coverage regarding it, a bill being debated in the House this week has enormous negative implications that will potentially affect the health of every single American citizen.
The Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act of 2015 is a bill which, if signed into law, will effectively block any state legislation requiring the labeling of foods containing GMOs.
Nicknamed the “DARK (Denying Americans the Right to Know) Act,” the legislation would establish a “voluntary” GMO labeling policy at the federal level, meaning that individual states would lose their right be able to pass any mandatory GMO labeling laws.
Introduced by Rep. Mike Pompeo, a Republican from Kansas, the DARK Act has been condemned by consumer advocates, environmental activists and others who believe GMOs pose a serious health risk.
