Tell Ohio’s Governor Strickland to abandon his rbG   previous | next          PDF Print E-mail
Ohio’s anti-consumer labeling restrictions threaten to eliminate the rbGH-free labels now placed on many dairy brands nationwide. Milk from cows injected with genetically modified bovine growth hormone (rbGH/rbST) has higher levels of pus, antibiotic-resistant bacteria, bovine growth hormone, and insulin-like growth factor-1—linked to higher rates of cancer and fraternal twins.

The Organic Trade Association and the International Dairy Foods Association sued the state of Ohio and LOST. Their case is now in appeal. Demand that Ohio abandon its deadly labeling requirements NOW, before a possible loss in the appeals court forces dairies nationwide to change their labels or give up rBGH-free labeling altogether
