Repeal the Monsanto Protection Act

Recall this post about how Monsanto got the US Congress to pass legislation to protect it from prosecution. Here's something you can do about it. I've copied the following from a Daily Kos email:

Please join Daily Kos and CREDO to demand that the U.S. Senate repeal the Monsanto Protection Act, one of the most outrageous special interest provisions in years. Click here to sign.

The Monsanto Protection Act allows Monsanto and other large corporations to ignore existing food safety rules, and continue selling genetically modified seeds even if a court has blocked them from doing so. And it was slipped in last March anonymously without review or debate.

Now we have an opportunity to repeal it, but we need your help. Powerful interests snuck this provision into the budget and rammed it through Congress, unbeknownst to many. Repealing this act will take a major grassroots effort to pressure the Senate.

Please join Daily Kos and CREDO by signing our petition to demand that the U.S. Senate repeal the Monsanto Protection Act.

Keep fighting,
