REMOVE THE Monsanto Protection Act!


REMOVE THE Monsanto Protection Act!

Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) has attached the Monsanto Protection Act Section 735 (HR 933) to the spending bill.  This is the same company which created Agent Orange during the Vietnam War.  Agent Orange is the combination of the code names for Herbicide Orange (HO) and Agent LNX, one of the herbicides and defoliants used by the U.S. military as part of its chemical warfare program, Operation Ranch Hand, during the Vietnam War from 1961 to 1971. Vietnam estimates 400,000 people were killed or maimed, and 500,000 children born with birth defects as a result of its use.[1] The Red Cross of Vietnam estimates that up to 1 million people are disabled or have health problems due to Agent Orange (Wikipedia).  Not only were the people of Vietnam adversely affected but so were US soldiers. The Department of Justice (Eric Holder) launched an extensive investigation.  This investigation ended abruptly without any explanation.  For more information please refer to the article entitled “Justice Department Shuts down Monsanto Investigation without Explanation”.  http://www.corporatecrimereporter.com/news/200/monsantoantitrust11282012/
