据美国食品安全新闻网消息,继本月初美国佛蒙特州议会通过转基因标识法案之后,近日美国康涅狄格州参议院以35:1的方式通过了转基因标识法案。能否最终获得通过取决于议会发言人布兰登.夏基(Brendan Sharkey)。
部分原文报道如下:
A second legislative body wants to require food manufacturers to label products with genetically modified organisms (GMOs)。 The Connecticut Senate has voted 35-to-1 in favor of a GMO labeling bill, joining the Vermont House's 99-to-42 vote on a nearly identical measure earlier this month.
The Vermont Senate won't take up GMO food labeling until at least 2014, and the fate of the bill in Connecticut is now up to House Speaker Brendan Sharkey, who has expressed concerns about the bill putting the small state at an economic disadvantage.
