Stop Monsanto's Secretary of State: Tell Your Senators to Oppose Mike Pompeo's Nomination!
The former Kansas Congressman is known to be the #1 lackey of Big Ag and the ultra-right wing Koch brothers. Here at CFS we know firsthand: Pompeo's track record demonstrates just how far he is willing to go to further corporate interests over Americans' rights to know what's in their food.
Tell Congress to Vote NO on the Farm Bill
The public just got access to the full text of the 2018 House Farm Bill. This is not a "farm bill" or even a "food bill"; it's a simply a wish-list for industrial agriculture and pesticide corporations. Urge your Representative to oppose this Farm Bill before it's too late.
Tell Your Senators: No More Delays on Menu Labeling!
The House just voted to approve the so-called “Common Sense Nutrition Disclosure Act” (H.R. 722), which would weaken a rule passed under the Obama Administration requiring restaurants to disclose calorie information for food and beverages on menus and menu boards.
Tell the Senate: Ban chlorpyrifos!
While Trump’s EPA put corporate profits over public health, Senator Tom Udall of New Mexico (D) has introduced a bill that would outlaw chlorpyrifos. The bill is called the Protect Children, Farmers and Farmworkers from Nerve Agent Pesticides Act of 2017 (S. 1624). Tell your senators to protect our kids and ban this toxic pesticide once and for all!
Tell the Trump Administration that GMO labeling must be clear and on the package
CFS filed a federal lawsuit against the Trump Administration on August 27th for withholding a required study on the feasibility of electronic disclosure for labeling of GE foods. Now, just 12 days after the suit was filed, the USDA has released the study!
Protect Endangered Species from Pesticides
The pesticide industry is pushing a bill that threatens the survival of endangered species. Tell Congress to oppose any legislative attempt to weaken ESA protections for species affected by pesticides!
“they [CFS] have been a real leader- in raising questions about genetically modified food, and the technology behind it, the impact on farmers. Because it's not just about environmental health threats, it's really a political issue...”
