We Have 15 Days to Stop GE Salmon From Being Approved

Tell Congress to Stop GE Salmon engineering....

My stomach turns at the thought of eating something that's considered an animal drug, but that's exactly what could end up on my plate if genetically engineered (GE) salmon are approved. We've got 15 days to stop the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) from approving GE salmon. Can you ask Congress (who passes bills) to stop FDA's approval of genetically engineered salmon? Franken-Fish have won the race to be the first genetically engineered animal approved for human consumption. The aquaculture industry has genetically engineered a fish that grows at twice the normal rate, so they can get it to market sooner and make more money.   The scary thing is, the FDA doesn't do its own testing of genetically engineered animals, it relies on information provided by the company that wants approval. And because GE salmon are being considered as a new animal drug, the process isn't focused on what happens to people who eat genetically engineered animals. So on top of the health concerns posed by raising salmon in crowded factory fish farms that rely on antibiotics and other chemicals, the FDA could be adding the unknown risks of GE salmon to the mix. The FDA is the same agency that's in charge of overseeing the egg industry, and we see how well they've done that job. The FDA does not have the capacity to ensure the safety of food that is not genetically engineered, they certainly should not be in charge of allowing the first GE animal into our food supply. We've got just 15 days until the FDA takes formal steps to approve GE salmon, so it's up to us to demand that President Obama direct the FDA to reject this request.

The initiative received enough valid signatures to be placed on the November ballot.     Peckman yesterday was enthusiastic about raising awareness for his Initiative. The voter education campaign seeks to “educate the voters with as many good facts as I can get in front of them when they’re paying attention,” according to Peckman.      Peckman wants to let people know that the commission would not cost taxpayers anything. He is also looking to educate people about a wide range of issues that he believes are directly related to extra terrestrial visitations, such as clean energy, jobs and environmental health.      “There’s a great deal to be gained by including the topic of extra terrestrial visitors into those discussions,” he said.  Initiative 300 would create a seven-person panel consisting of volunteers who are “knowledgeable experts” on extraterrestrials. The commission would be funded entirely by grants, gifts and donations, according to Peckman.   Peckman believes Denver is in a good position to lead the country. For one, Denver is closer to outer space than almost any other major U.S. city, he said.      “This information is going to get out there sooner or later, Denver could take the lead,” he said.        Peckman pulled a similar initiative from the November 2008 ballot after gathering the 4,000 signatures needed to place it on the ballot. He said at the time that he pulled the measure because then-presidential candidate Barack Obama was likely going to become president and would release documents related to alien encounters. But after being elected, Peckman became disillusioned that Obama or his cabinet would have the “will or courage to disclose UFO files,” so he started the campaign again.    “It’s time to go over the heads of elected public servants directly to the voters,” Peckman writes on his Web site. “James Madison, (America’s) fourth president, wrote that, ‘The People are the only legitimate fountain of power’”      Not everyone in the extraterrestrial community supports Peckman’s Initiative.  When he was gearing up for the initiative, the Rocky Mountain Paranormal Research Society said Peckman was making a mockery of the topic.      “We tend to approach things with intelligence,” Matthew Baxter, a paranormal investigator with the Rocky Mountain Paranormal Research Society, told the Denver Daily last year. “They would like to get assistance from the government on something the government is covering up.”      But Peckman believes there is support for his initiative, and that it would help convince the American government and the rest of the world to disclose UFO “X-Files,” which supposedly include details of alien encounters here on earth and across the universe. He said last year that six billionaires with an interest in alien issues would line up to show their financial support for the commission.
