Message Subject Obama signs Monsanto Protection Act! Betrays America - It's Time to Label GMOs

Post Content
Once again, I would like to ask to see WHAT Obama signed, the only thing I can find is what sounds to me like a relatively minor regulatory thing. If someone can show me something besides the quote I'll include below, or an explanation how that part is a bigger deal than it looks like to me I'd appreciate it. Also, what is with you people thinking it says GMO stuff doesn't need to be labeled? Do you see GMO labels right now? What would that law even change?

Sec. 735. In the event that a determination of non-regulated status made pursuant to section 411 of the Plant Protection Act is or has been invalidated or vacated, the Secretary of Agriculture shall, notwithstanding any other provision of law, upon request by a farmer, grower, farm operator, or producer, immediately grant temporary permit(s) or temporary deregulation in part, subject to necessary and appropriate conditions consistent with section 411(a) or 412(c) of the Plant Protection Act, which interim conditions shall authorize the movement, introduction, continued cultivation, commercialization and other specifically enumerated activities and requirements, including measures designed to mitigate or minimize potential adverse environmental effects, if any, relevant to the Secretary’s evaluation of the petition for non-regulated status, while ensuring that growers or other users are able to move, plant, cultivate, introduce into commerce and carry out other authorized activities in a timely manner: Provided, That all such conditions shall be applicable only for the interim period necessary for the Secretary to complete any required analyses or consultations related to the petition for non-regulated status: Provided further, That nothing in this section shall be construed as limiting the Secretary’s authority under section 411, 412 and 414 of the Plant Protection Act.
