In a week, California voters will have voted for 10 propositions, including prop 37, the GMO labeling  law. Recent polls have shown  that the no to prop 37 is now leading.

Despite a majority of Americans in favor of such labeling, regardless their party affiliation, labeling is not mandatory in the United States.  This could be explained by the long history of revolving door between governmental agencies such as the FDA, USDA  and Monsanto, the world biggest producer of genetically engineered seed. Monsanto is also the leading single funder of the campaign against prop 37.

The following infographic, provided by Reusethisbag.com, highlights the pros and cons of voting for prop 37 .
