Senate passes Monsanto Protection Act

Dear Friend,

We regret to inform you, but this morning Congress succeeded in passing
Section 735, aka the Monsanto Protection Act, in the Continuing Resolution
spending bill.

We need you to contact President Obama before he signs it and HR 933
becomes law.

With the passage of the Monsanto Protection Act in Congress, biotech
lobbyists are one step closer to making sure that their new GMO crops can
evade any serious scientific or regulatory review.

This dangerous provision, which we're calling the Monsanto Protection Act,
strips judges of their constitutional mandate to protect consumer rights
and the environment, while opening up the floodgates for the planting of
new untested genetically engineered crops, endangering farmers, consumers
and the environment.

We are asking that you take action here and then call President Obama and
Congress to shut down their email and phone lines until Section 735 is
removed from the continuing resolution. Join us in putting a stop to the
Monsanto Protection Act!
