Dear Corporate and Government Leaders,

Genetically engineered food ingredients or crops should not be allowed on the market until: 

1) Independent safety testing demonstrates they have no harmful effects on human health or the environment, 

2) They are labeled to ensure the consumer's right-to-know, and 

3) The biotechnology corporations that manufacture them are held responsible for any harm.

I am vehemently opposed to the use of animals in testing genetically modified organisms. I am vehemently opposed to genetically modified organisms.


Sincerely

Jolene Michelle Reed
