Subject: re regulation of genetically engineered foods

To whom this may concern,

It is imperative to me, my family and everyone I speak to on this subject that the American people be better protected by the FDA.  We need responsible testing and labeling of genetically engineered food.  We also are horrified at the conflict of interest issue exemplified by  many employees of the FDA having been employed by the very companies they are supposed to be regulating, and then returning to those same companies after having "served on the FDA".
