Require grocery stores to label foods containing genetically modified organisms
In Plain English
The city council is considering a new law that would force grocery stores in Richmond to put special labels on foods made with genetically modified ingredients. Currently, stores decide whether to include this information on their own. If approved, shoppers would see clear labels identifying which products contain GMOs when they buy groceries.
