Thursday, March 7, 2013, 8:30 – 9:30 a.m.

Anaheim Marriott Hotel, Anaheim, CA, Platinum Ballroom 1

 

GMO labeling advocates are rallying to support I-522, the People’s Right to Know Genetically Engineered Food Act, in Washington State, considered one of the best chances for labeling genetically engineered foods in 2013.

 

Learn how you can support this effort, along with lessons learned from California’s Prop 37 and what’s happening elsewhere on national and state levels to require labeling of genetically engineered foods.
