Proposed Law We the People of the State of California wish to see foods grown and meats raised with genetically engineered influences to be labeled at the retail level with Produced with Genetically Engineered Ingredients, in type equal to and immediately preceding product ingredient labeling. Genetic engineered influences are defined as: Crops and livestock containing genetic material transferred from one species to another, or other DNA modifications not commonly possible under natural conditions, such as cell fusion, gene deletion or doubling, and induced sequence or encapsulation variations. Historical breeding techniques such as hybridization through mass selection, controlled crossing, line breeding, back crossing, are not considered to be genetic engineering. P.O. Box 520, Glen Ellen, CA 95442 (707) 939-8316 |
