YOU CAN HELP. JOIN the VOLUNTEERS to FIGHT BACK NOW! In less than 2 weeks, Californians will vote on Prop. 37. This is an historic campaign - it would mean that for the first time in the United States, consumers would have the right to know if the food they are eating has been genetically tampered with by chemical companies. Monsanto, DuPont, Dow Chemical, Pepsi, Kraft & Coca Cola have invested over $40 million and are spending $1 million per day to deceive Californians. They are flooding the state with misleading ads to confuse and scare the voters and to trick people into voting against their own best interests. And it's working. In the past week our poll numbers have dropped from 61% to 48%. WE MUST FIGHT BACK. Here are the ways YOU can help to fight back: 1.
