BREAKING: Judge Kurren rules against home rule, invalidates Kauai pesticide and GE disclosure, buffer zones and impact studies law, Ordinance 960. Do not be discouraged, this is just the beginning we must solidify, band together and protect ourselves from the worlds largest chemical companies poisoning us. The battle is far from over: One ruling by one magistrate judge does not end the issue. The system is broken. The state has done nothing to protect the people. Wherever the fight is. WE WILL BE THERE. This issue and the people will not go away. WE WILL PROTECT WHAT WE LOVE. Mahalo for all of your aloha and support. We need to keep calm and stay focused, get involved and aloha aina. Stay grounded and make strong. #stoppoisoningparadise #hawaii #savehawaii #unite #wakeup #wiseup #riseup #kauai #gmogroundzero #defendhawaii #defendkauai #Ord960 #protectwhatyoulove #makestrong #BAB #GMOFreeUSA LONG LIVE HAWAIʻI NEI! centerforfoodsafety.org/press-releases/3417/federal-court-rules-that-state-law-preempts-kauais-pesticide-and-ge-crop-disclosure-law staradvertiser/news/breaking/20140825_Judge_Kauai_genetically_modified_crop_law_invalid.html?id=272607921 Biotechnology companies Syngenta Seeds Inc., Syngenta Hawaii LLC, Pioneer Hi-Bred International Inc., Agrigenetics, Inc. and BASF Plant Science LPs sued the county in January. Several organizations, including Ka Makani Hoopono, Center for Food Safety, Pesticide Action Network North America and Surfrider Foundation, intervened to defend Kauai. HOW YOU CAN HELP: Our losses at the county level mean unless the invalidation is overruled in an appeal, our only chance in Hawaii, GMO Ground Zero worldwide is to enact state legislation. We need all the help we can get with an incumbent legislature including heavily influenced lawmakers receiving funding from chemical and GE companies. To help us fight back as our county home rule is now in jeopardy again, please share this info and if you can, donate to the Hawaii Center for Food Safety Action fund now. Its an election year and our health and environment is at stake, HCFSAF is a non-candidate, non-partisan political action committee associated with the Hawaii Center for Food Safety which has committed to continue to do everything they can to defend Hawaii.
