When Mike Pompeo (R-KS) and G.K. Butterfield (D-NC) introduced the “Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act of 2014” to Congress, they were nefariously supported by the Grocery Manufacturers Association (GMA) and the Biotechnology Industry Organization (BIO).
However, they didn’t have the backing of the American people. The internet exploded with opposition against the bill. People participated in global marches, protesting against poison-promoting biotech bastards like Monsanto.
As soon as the bill was introduced, The Environmental Working Group (EWG) shone a light on its true intended purpose, and dubbed it the “Deny Americans the Right to Know” (DARK) Act. The bill tried to block the individual states from enacting their own GMO labeling laws. The bill sought to keep consumers in the dark by allowing biotech companies to continue masking their herbicides, pesticides and use of genetically modified organisms in the food supply.
DARK Act 2.0 headed for the U.S. Senate
Now Sen. Pat Roberts (R-Kan.) has released a similar bill that is extremely reminiscent of the Dark Act. The bill not only seeks to stop states from requiring labeling of genetically engineered (GMO) foods, but also to stop any pending state GMO labeling laws from going into effect.
