Vote on GMO labeling: Proposition 105
Vote on GMO labeling: Proposition 105
You did it! This November, Coloradans will have the opportunity to vote on Proposition 105. This measure would require labeling of foods produced using genetically engineered organisms (GMOs) in Colorado beginning in 2016. WCC members contributed to the more than 165,000 signatures turned into the Secretary of State to place this measure on the ballot.
Now is the time to educate our neighbors on this important issue and help Get out the Vote!
National polling has consistently shown that a majority of consumers want the right to know what’s in their food. Food labels already list and describe nearly every detailed component of food products. Adding a simple label for GMO ingredients would enable Colorado consumers to make informed decisions about what they feed their families. Vote YES! on 105.
