Deregulating Genetically Modified or Engineered technology means these crops are entering the market with virtually no independent review and once deregulated, the USDA conducts no monitoring to see if a GM crop has harmed the environment and sets no standards for minimizing contamination of non-GM foods.
Setting "acceptable" levels of GM contamination would provide no recourse for farmers who are contaminated.
Releasing GM crops without fully understanding their impacts and without a plan to prevent contamination is gambling with our health, our environment and livelihoods of family farmers. Moreover, despite overwhelming support, the FDA has failed to require labeling that protects consumers' rights to make informed decisions and know whether foods contain GM ingredients.
