The New GMO Law Simplified

Vermont’s GMO law has been erased by Federal law signed by President Obama on July 29th.  You can completely ignore the Vermont GMO disclosure law for all time.

New Federal GMO Law: New Federal Law provides:

  1. All state GMO labeling laws are void. Industry can ignore Vermont’s and other state GMO labeling laws.
  1. USDA will draft new federal law’s content within 2 years.  This means there are no GMO labeling requirements in U.S. for at least 2 years.
  1. GMO label disclosures due in 2 years can be a QR symbol, which many foods already have on label.  No need to have “GMO” anywhere on label.
