GMO RALLY; WE HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW WHAT IS IN OUR FOOD

The movement calling for "The Right to Know" - is to have foodstuffs that contain genetically modified organisms (GMO) properly labeled. I was honored to speak at the rally held at the State Capitol on February 21 - see the youtube:

In contrast - there is the argument that by merely labeling food, people would lose their jobs and people would not be able to afford food. This is the position of State Representative Kymberly Pine who advocated labeling just one food item, bread, would be devastating to our economy and voted against labeling - voted against your right to know - see video:

Please consider contacting Rep. Pine (repine@capitol.hawaii.gov) and let her know it's time for consumers to have the right to know and support my reso 12-7 calling for a start in the right direction.
