Dear Aubey,
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” ― Margaret Mead.
This week, an army of amazing grassroots volunteers from the Right to Know Colorado campaign delivered 167,950 signatures to the Colorado Secretary of State’s office to qualify a ballot initiative to label GMOs for this November’s election.
The volunteer driven campaign in Colorado crushed the required 86,105 signatures to make it on the ballot by nearly double and already the opposition is heating up and we need your help now to make sure we can defeat Monsanto's GMO Lie Machine this fall.
Help us raise $100,000 in the next 10 days so we can defeat Monsanto and win GMO labeling in Oregon and Colorado! If you donate today, your donation will be matched 3 to 1 by the incredible teams at Mercola.com and Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps.
Please, Aubey – don't miss this chance to have your gift matched by pitching in whatever you can. Every dollar counts!

Colorado and Oregon: NOW the Game is On and Monsanto is Panicking!
Colorado’s amazing success follows on the heels of activists last week from the Oregon Right to Know campaign, which was officially certified by the Oregon Secretary of State’s office for voters to pass Yes on 92 for GMO labeling in Oregon.
With state ballot initiatives for GMO labeling now live in 2 states, Monsanto and their Big Food front groups are hitting the panic button.
Already, you’ve helped pass strong GMO labeling bills in Connecticut, Maine and Vermont and now we need to pass ballot initiatives in Oregon and Colorado to knock Monsanto’s secret plan to kill GMO labeling in Washington DC out for good.
In the past 2 years, Monsanto and the GMA spent more than $70 million to defeat GMO labeling in California and Washington State alone, but they can’t keep us down!
Monsanto is going to come at us with all they've got -- we need to be prepared NOW.
