AFBF President Zippy Duvall Praises Senate on GMO Labeling Cloture Vote


Zippy Duvall, President of the American Farm Bureau Federation, released the following statement in reference to the cloture vote on the Roberts-Stabenow GMO labeling bill taken today:



"The Senate today did the right thing by voting to move toward a full debate on the merits of the GMO labeling bill. The legislation is not perfect, but it does take critical steps to prevent a confusing 50-state patchwork of laws disclosing the presence of entirely harmless ingredients. It is time for the Senate to pass this legislation so the House can do likewise at its first opportunity."
