Abstract

"News & Issues" piece on a legislative bill sponsored by Sen. Marge Kilkelly, D-Wiscasset, that creates a voluntary program for labeling food items that are genetically engineered (GE) or contain GE ingredients. By 10-3, the Legislature's Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry Committee rejected a bill last week that would have required labeling identifying such products, then endorsed Kilkelly's bill, creating the voluntary program.
