Breaking News: A U.S. District Court has held that the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)'s decision to allow genetically engineered (GMO) foods to only be labelled with a "QR" code was unlawful, and that USDA must instead add additional disclosure options to those foods under USDA's National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Standard. The Court sent back to the agency the QR code portions of the 2018 Trump administration rules for GMO labeling that went into effect on January 1, 2022, which hindered consumer access with burdensome electronic or digital disclosures.

"We are very gratified that the District Court has acknowledged the flawed nature of the National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Standard and has removed at least one of the very egregious aspects of it from the labeling standard," said Mark Squire, co-owner and manager of Good Earth Natural Foods. "We will continue to fight for complete honesty and transparency in food labelling."

"I am delighted with the court's decision today," said Pamm Larry, organizing director of Label GMOs (and also on GMO/Toxin Free USA’s board of directors). "The decision is a victory for the consumer's right to know what they are buying and putting in their children's mouths. Let us hope that USDA goes back to the table and delivers a regulation that protects our rights and requires that food manufactures tell the truth about what's in our food."

This court ruling sticks it to the USDA, Bayer-Monsanto, Big Food and Big Ag. And we’re one step closer to real transparency. But there are at least several more very egregious points within the new GMO labeling law that need to be struck from the regulation for us to have true GMO labeling.
