POLICY PLATFORM

 

The Genetic Engineering Policy Alliance is a network of organizations and individuals promoting precautionary policies on genetically engineered food and agriculture. We inform California policymakers and the public of the need for policies that address:

 

  1. Public notice – of all open-air plantings of genetically engineered crops through appropriate agencies.
  2. Labeling – of all genetically engineered foods, seeds and plants.
  3. Assignment of Liability – providing remedies for farmers and communities in the event of genetic contamination of crops, damage to the environment, or harm to the public.
  4. Prohibition – of open-air food crops genetically engineered to produce pharmaceuticals or industrial chemicals
