Subject: Mandatory Labeling of Genetic Engineered Foods

TO THE FEDERAL DRUG ADMINISTRATION WHOSE PAYCHECKS I SUPPLY!

I INSIST YOU REQUIRE STRICT LABELING REGULATIONS ON ALL FOODS, WHETHER IN
WHOLE OR IN PART, THAT ARE CONTAIN GENETICALLY ALTERED INGREDIENTS.  THIS
IS THE CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
IT IS ALSO THE RIGHT OF COMPANIES TO CREATE THEIR PROFITS BUT ABSOLUTELY
NOT AT THE EXPENSE OF HUMAN HEALTH.  GENETIC ENGINEERING FOOD MUST BE
TESTED BEFORE IMPLEMENTATION.  IF YOU ARE GOING TO ALLOW GE FOODS ANYWAY,
THEN GIVE US THE CHOICE TO BUY IT OR NOT!

THERE IS NO ROOM FOR SLACK HERE. AND THERE IS NO TOLERANCE FOR
IRRESPONSIBLE DECISIONS.  BE CAREFUL!
