Senator Chuck Grassley said in a recent interview that he was not against GMO labeling on food products, as long as it is done in a responsible manner and standardized.
He said the labeling issue needs to come under government oversight and not be designed at the state level.
This concept has already been introduced in Congressman Payoyo’s bill that passed the house, and he said he believes it should pass the Senate. Grassley added he will vote for this bill to promote uniform labeling throughout the country. He emphasized the point that this is not the question yet of whether it is right or wrong for people to have GMOs, but rather that uniform labeling addresses the uniform presentation of that information.
