Tell Obama to Cease FDA Ties to Monsanto

[perfect stranger]

President Obama, I oppose your appointment of Michael Taylor, a former VP and Lobbyist for Monsanto, the widely criticized Genetically Modified (GM) food multinational, as Senior Advisor to the Commissioner at the FDA. Taylor is the same person who was Food Safety Czar at the FDA when Genetically Modified Organisms were allowed into the US food supply without undergoing a single test to determine their safety or risks. This is a travesty. Taylor was in charge of policy for Monsanto's now-discredited GM Bovine Growth Hormone (rBGH) which is directly linked to cancer and opposed by many medical and hospital organizations.

There is a new study that food may also act as gene regulators.

appears Monsanto has not tested the safety of GMOs on humans, based on their web site

maybe that is why the push to fill gov. regulatory positions with Monsanto people.
