Kucinich prepares 6 bills to regulate GM food.
We talked about his stance on GM foods here last week:

One of the reasons I support DK is that he takes action, repeatedly, on his issues.

1. The Genetically Engineered Food Right to Know Act, which would
require labeling of genetically engineered foods;

2. The Genetically Engineered Crop and Animal Protection Act, which
would set up a "Farmer Bill of Rights";

3. The Genetically Engineered Organism Liability Act, which would ensure
that the creators of genetic engineering technology would assume the
liabilities from the new technology;

4. The Genetically Engineered Food Safety Act, which would require all
genetically engineered foods to undergo a strenuous food safety review
process;

5. Real Solutions to World Hunger Act, which offers several new
initiatives to help developing nations, including an international fund
for sustainable agriculture research; and

6. The Genetically Engineered Pharmaceutical and Industrial Crop Safety
Act, which would place a permanent moratorium on pharmaceutical and
industrial crops grown in an open-air environment, or grown in commonly
used food sources such as corn.

5. It's great that Dennis is always looking out for the people
This is the kind of person we need in the White House. Why should we settle for less?

7. And he STILL hasn't missed a House vote
On the job and kicking ass!

That's why Dennis is the One!

Compare Gephardt, who missed two key House votes while campaigning, at least one of which his vote alone could have changed the outcome on.
