Dive Summary:
- Prop 37 is the proposed California legislation that would require all genetically modified foods to include that information.
- The battle between those for and against the proposition has been raging for months, but only recently escalated into possible criminal charges.
- The group Yes to Prop 37 has claimed that the opposition group has been using false advertising and lies in their pamphlets, even claiming the FDA was opposed to the proposition. The FDA, of course, has no stance on the issue, and by saying so is, in fact, a criminal offense.
From the article:
"Responding to the allegations, No on 37 campaign spokeswoman Kathy Fairbanks said the other side is resorting to unwarranted attacks while sensing voter opposition to the measure."
