including MOST states, ALREADY have some form of GMO labeling laws either in place or that are being legislated and/or introduced via citizen initiatives.
This simple fact exposes the big lie being promulgated by the No on 92 campaign that "92 would result in a $400 annual increase in an Oregon family's food budget" because they IMPLY that Oregon would be the ONLY state in USA where food producers would need to separately label and distribute non-GMO food.
Oddly enough, Yes on 92 ads DO cite how many other NATIONs already have GMO-labeling requirements and/or ban them altogether; but I have never seen them point out how many other states have GMO labeling requirements in the works, which clearly shows that food producers are ALREADY going to be required in SOME STATES to label GMOs, it won't "only" be required Oregon.

I only ran across this interactive map yesterday, or would have posted it earlier.
