GMO Regulation

The GMO crops that were formed in a scientific lab where biotech scientists extract a definite characteristic of a bacterium, fungus, or virus; then the scientists will inject a seed with the gene turning it into a genetically engineered seed. The GMO regulation has inconsistent guidelines, policies that are out of date, and regulations that are contradictory between FDA, EPA, and the USDA. The Federal government will need to upgrade their policies and guidelines that will require that the government agencies pay more attention to the policies. The regulations and procedures should require altered biotechnology crops to have a higher standard than non-GMO crops. The rules, laws, and policies are replacing the exists, should make sure that no harm comes to the consumer. Therefore, GMO should be tested to ensure absolutely no toxins, required labeling so the users can make their decisions, and protect wild species that are being destroyed by biotech crops.
Succeeding, GMO will need to be a detailed policy on labeling of all foods with GMO ingredients that will be required to advise individuals on all modified food. The government should assign the EPA, FDA, and USDA to modernize all policies directed towards genetically engineered crops. Then Congress will need to revise the policy on specific GMO labels on biotech companies that will require packaged food to have a name and warning statements with each ingredient from GMO foods that are attainable for the consumers.
