GREAT NEWS!
We, at GMO Free NY, got calls today from both sponsoring Senator Kenneth LaValle and
sponsoring Assemblywoman Linda Rosenthal's offices, to inform us that the amended language that our NY State Coalition has been working on since the start of this year - on updating our NY State GMO Labeling
Bill IS A GO!!!!!!!
They will have the BILLS: A-3525-A/S3835-A
(yes, we can now use these numbers!)
With amended language up on their sites ASAP.....(by week - end we are told, if they can move it into the websites that fast!)
So, NOW: Rosenthal's Office told us our Coalition Partners NEED to:
Write INDIVIDUAL MEMOs with your own letterhead/logos to all of the Members of the:
ASSEMBLY - CONSUMER AFFAIRS and PROTECTION COMMITTEE
SENATE - CONSUMER PROTECTION COMMITTEE
Have other community, faith-based, educational, medical, science, business, etc., groups and individual constituents do the same.
And urge them to get A-3525-A/S3835-A BILLS OUT OF COMMITTEE
and to a VOTE NOW!!!!!!!
We have compiled all COMMITTEE MEMBER info and will get it all to you
(stand by for the names, addresses and numbers to follow ASAP)
Thanks to everyone on our amazing NY State Coalition for moving this forward! Now the real work begins.
We can do this, New York!!
Ya Gotta Believe!
Cheers, (wooptee freakin' dooooo)
