Campaign Unavailable We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Inactive -- Pesticide Action Network North America.The short explanation of this alert was: Tell your Senators and Representatives to keep national organic regulations the way they are. Thanks to many activists who voiced their objections to Congress, an assault on organic standards has been delayed. However, the threat to weaken the requirements for an "organic" label is still with us. The Joint Senate-House Appropriations Committee may make a decision on whether or not to allow an amendment to the Organic Food Production Act that allows synthetic ingredients in organic-labeled food and relaxed standards for cows who produce organic milk as early as September 26th. This amendment is being driven by large corporate food industry members like Kraft who have purchased smaller organic food companies, and now wield clout in the Organic Trade Association. Please contact your Senators and Congressional representatives today! Ask them to oppose the Amendment to the Organic Food Production Act. Read more about the battle for organic standards.
