Dear Friends and Supporters Of Our Right To Know-
Last night, about two weeks earlier than we thought we'd hear, the Secretary of State announced (https://www.labelgmos.org/r?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sos.ca.gov%2Fadmin%2Fpress-releases%2F2012%2Fdb12-068.pdf&utm_campaign=got_on_ballot&n=2&e=470a4f25ec88ff151e20e16417880bb2ef1dce1b&utm_source=labelgmos&utm_medium=email) that the California Right To Know Genetically Engineered Food Act qualified to be on the November 6 ballot.
We've done it, folks! Against all odds we got on the ballot and now, against all odds, we are going to win in November.
Why? Because over 90% of us want our foods labeled. We believe our right to know what we are buying and feeding ourselves and our kids supersedes corporate rights to a nontransparent profit. We are tired of elected officials buckling to corporate pressure over the clear desires of us, their constituents. We are outraged that we don't have the same right that over 40% of the world's population has: A clear, transparent market with genetically engineered ingredients disclosed in a simple, easy to read way.
Our fight is just beginning, folks. Just 22 weeks from today, we will go to the polls. We are in the fight of our lives while all the world watches what we do here.
Please join us in what many are calling our last fight to get labeling. This is it. We estimate a huge media campaign of misinformation, twisting facts and outright lies. They may have huge financial resources, but they don't have us. We need all of you with us in an active way.
Please volunteer and donate!

See you on the streets!
