However, the Vermont activists alleged those two states' laws are not really laws, because they don't actually take effect until a certain number of other states also pass labeling laws.

Zuckerman said he wants to see a GMO labeling bill that does not have a clause requiring other states to also pass laws. He acknowledged convincing some colleagues in the state Senate to take the leap will be a challenge.Full Report Here | Vt. rally pushes for GMO labeling law
