An Act To Amend Maine's Genetically Modified Food Products Labeling Law
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows:
Sec. 1. PL 2013, c. 436, §2 is repealed.
summary
Maine's genetically modified food products labeling law included a delay of the effective date of the law until mandatory labeling of genetically engineered food is adopted by at least 5 contiguous states including Maine. The law also included an automatic repeal if mandatory labeling of genetically engineered food is not adopted by at least 5 contiguous states including Maine by January 1, 2018. This bill repeals both the delayed effective date and automatic repeal provisions, thereby making the law effective.
