Boycott Companies Fighting Prop 37!

Share This Article

Beware the companies below: they are battling your right to know what’s in your food by donating large sums of money to fight Prop 37 (the California Right to Know Act, a.k.a. Label GMO).

In addition to spending millions to stop GMO labeling in California, these companies are also supporting disinformation campaigns in which wild charges are made, such as the charge that labeling GMO will greatly increase food prices—it’s complete nonsense, as we have previously reported.
We encourage you to boycott the below companies and their brands/products (you may be surprised to learn what well-known brands belong to these massive conglomerates). We are targeting food companies that are trying to stop Prop 37 with their donations. In many cases, these contributions are hundreds of thousands of dollars—and in some cases, over a million.
