LOBBY DAY SOIREE
FRIDAY, JANUARY 20, 2006
6:30pm - 8:30pm
Join us for a gathering to raise awareness about genetically engineered food and its consequences. We are raising funds to charter a bus for our February 8th Lobby Day in Albany, and for the lobbying effort.
Gourmet Organic Food provided by chefs Christopher Gaddess and Deborah Hetrick
SUGGESTED DONATION $20
Sixth Street Community Center
638 East 6th Street (bet. Aves. B and C), Manhattan
Live music (Two live bands).
Videos about genetically engineered food will be shown.
The purpose of Lobby Day is to advocate for legislation to protect the
integrity of our food. 2006 is a critical session for the State Legislature.
We have a real chance of getting legislation passed that will require
labeling of genetically engineered seeds and hold corporations
liable for GE crop contamination.
