Nationwide GMO labeling would simplify compliance
Many shoppers at Debra's Natural Gourmet would like to see labeling for genetically modified organisms, but cannot rely on manufacturers to do so voluntarily, Debra Stark of the Massachusetts retailer (left) told a legislative assistant for Sen. Elizabeth Warren (middle). She argued that national legislation mandating labeling is necessary - a slightly stronger stance than NPA, which supports a uniform federal law and voluntary labeling. Beth Imhoff, eastern regional account manager for Vitamar Labs, also weighed in on issues important to NPA (right).
