Dear Governor Kitzhaber,
Really?
The public soundly rejected SB 633, so you'll just shove it down the public's
collective throat anyway?
GMOs
are an economic dead-end, and the companies that seek to peddle that particular
brand of snake oil to the public know it. If GMOs had real commercial value,
the public would be clamoring for them, not trying to get them rejected; if GMOs
had anything of value for the public, companies like Monsanto wouldn't be
engaged in endless rounds of expensive litigation and/or legislation involving their
ill-conceived products. Allowing the planting of GMO seeds anywhere in Oregon
without strict conditions attached risks irreparable harm to Oregon's
agricultural industry and permanent changes to its ecology. Please, don't go
there.
Sincerely,
