We need law on food labeling

I understand there is a bill coming to the floor in our legislature in Springfield regarding the labeling of GMO food products.

I believe we should be informed of everything in our food, not just calories, fat, sugar, etc.

Many countries already label genetically engineered foods. Even China and Russia require labeling.

Surely we deserve to have a choice of what we put into our bodies. I've written my state senator, Dan Duffy, and urged him to support this bill.

Everyone should write their legislator and get this law passed.
