2015 A Year of Great Strides
What an incredible year! Both tragic and triumphant, if you are a supporter of this cause, one thing is for sure -- life is always challenging.
With your support we have reached more people than we can count, raised awareness, inspired action and supported healthy communities across the country and around the world together. Your support and participation is literally altering the future of our planet. THANK YOU!
We are committed to taking bold actions with velocity and this year we continued to do so. The events you initiate, support, attend or promote make a difference!

meetings with Senator's aides on World Food Day 10月 16 2015.
During our third year as a growing organization we were delighted with the many amazing people we have been able to collaborate with nationally and internationally:
の Organic Consumer's Association, Label GMOs, CSG, March Against Monsanto, GMOFree USA, SumofUs, Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds Expo, MADGE Australia, GE Free New Zealand, No GMOs Tawain, No GMOs UK Moms, ChemFreeCom.com, AsYouSow, Weston A. Price Foundation, Truth in Labeling Coalition, Food Democracy Now, Chinese and African Mom leaders, scientists and farmers around the world, Jeffrey Smith, Citizen's For GMO Labeling, Autism One, Concerned Citizens of Iowa, Occupy the World Food Prize, Shaka Movement, and more. We are grateful to our primary sponsors, NYR Organic, Baker Creek and Dr.Bronner's Magic Soaps and the hundreds of individual supporters for being a part of this crucial cause.
We are most grateful this year for the opportunity to work together with so many wonderful people. Thank you all.
Group of activists at Heirloom Expo Breakfast
Many groups have requested the presence of Moms Across America at their events this year. I was honored to speak on behalf of our supporters at 40 locations, nationally and internationally, reaching thousands, raising awareness and supporting actions for healthy communities. In every location, I looked into the eyes of parents and saw people struggling with their children's health. I also saw immense gratitude for all of your testimonials and actions. People around the world are truly inspired by the number of calls, the events and campaigns you are participating in and the difference you are making. THANK YOU!
I also spoke at events where people oppose what we are doing, and even then, I saw that they listened and we made a difference for them. I wondered if it is because many of them have family that are sick as well.
These locations included Monsanto in Missouri, Dow in Michigan, Dupont in Maryland, Syngenta in Basel, Switzerland, and the Borlaug Dialogue: World Food Prize Conference in Iowa.
The Monsanto shareholder meeting account blog was reported to us by an EU contact to have been translated into 7 languages.
I spoke on behalf of Moms Across America on a speaking tour with Dr. Michelle Perro and Dr. Michael Antoniou in Australia and New Zealand and in Zurich, Switzerland at an EU protest against the GM Potato and corporate control. It is clear that we are a global food economy and GMO chemical farming is affecting us all.

| Parade marchers in CT and Texas. |
You had Moms Meetups all across the country in May and connected with leaders who inspire us to continue on.
You called, emailed, posted and wrote letters by the thousands to senators and representatives.
Many of you courageously met with your Senator's aides for the first time, really expanding yourself and our impact.
Supporters marched in parades in July for the third year, totaling over 700 events in the first three years of our existence in all 50 states.
Our sponsors enabled us to send out hundreds of thousands of free flyers, door hangers, buttons and decals to over 500 leaders and you passed them out around your communities.
In addition, over 85 supporters took our speaker training and are empowered to speak across the country, expanding our reach!
Outside of Monsanto building at the OCA, MAM, Occupy and MAA Dark Act Rally.
The results? What you are contributing to:
- Food manufacturers are moving away from GMOs and toxins! Organic food is the fastest growing sector of the market!
- More moms report healthier children and happier families! Priceless!
- The World Health Organization deemed glyphosate a probable carcinogen. Did you know that a member of the WHO was in our meeting with the EPA 5月 27, 2014 on Rachel Carson's birthday? We presented a binder of studies showing harmful and cancerous effects and your testimonies.
- The EPA is conducting glyphosate testing in breast milk and has yet to make their decision about revoking the license of glyphosate.
- The CA EPA stated it's intent to label glyphosate a carcinogen.
- Monsanto's stock value dropped 30% at one point.
- Syngenta declared they deliberately decreased the sale of glyphosate this year.
- Reuters reported that Big Ag is moving AWAY from harsh chemical pesticides and towards more biological solutions.
- Enlist Duo was was pulled OFF the market (THANK YOU!!!) and further investigation of glyphosate and other toxic chemicals were conducted.
- Climate Chaos is being connected to GMO farming and the international community is beginning to agree on organic farming benefits.
- Moms championed and succeeded in having schools, homeowners associations and counties to go glyphosate free.
- GMO Free zones were passed and Vermont's labeling law was upheld!
- We helped stop the DARK Act and TPP from being passed this year.
- More countries now BAN GMOS than grow them.
Food Justice Rally: Zen, Tami, & Amber. Maui with Autumn, Rep. Ellie Cochran, Zen & Beth of Shaka.
Be assured that you supporters- getting tested, calling and speaking up about your children's health issues, are the primary catalyst for many of these countries' concerns and bans. This I have been told many times. Even more than scientific studies, your experience matters.
Your calls, testimonials, actions, and support make a difference! Thank you!
In the coming year, we have some great campaigns, solutions, events and actions you can participate in and support.
We have new health solutions, a grocery store, new campaigns and more supportive training coming soon!
Check our newest event and please participate if you can!
Look out for some exciting announcements in our emails and calls to action. To further support us, please become a member in 2016.
Again, Thank you for your partnership!

続きを読むMonsanto to be Tried for Crimes Against Humanity
Monsanto Put on Trial for Crimes Against Humanity at the Hague
The Organic Consumers Association (OCA), IFOAM International Organics, Navdanya, Regeneration International (RI), and Millions Against Monsanto, joined by dozens of global food, farming and environmental justice groups announced today that they will put Monsanto MON (NYSE), a US-based transnational corporation, on trial for crimes against nature and humanity, and ecocide, in The Hague, Netherlands, next year on World Food Day, 10月 16, 2016.
Since the beginning of the twentieth century according to the groups, Monsanto has developed a steady stream of highly toxic products which have permanently damaged the environment and caused illness or death for thousands of people.
Read the rest of the Sustainable Pulse article here: http://sustainablepulse.com/2015/12/03/monsanto-put-on-trial-for-crimes-against-humanity-in-the-hague/#.VmCQrHarSM9
The announcement was made at a press conference held in conjunction with the COP21 United Nations Conference on Climate Change, 11月 30 – 12月 11, in Paris.
“The time is long overdue for a global citizens’ tribunal to put Monsanto on trial for crimes against humanity and the environment. We are in Paris this month to address the most serious threat that humans have ever faced in our 100-200,000 year evolution—global warming and climate disruption. Why is there so much carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide in the atmosphere and not enough carbon organic matter in the soil? Corporate agribusiness, industrial forestry, the garbage and sewage industry and agricultural biotechnology have literally killed the climate-stabilizing, carbon-sink capacity of the Earth's living soil.” - Ronnie Cummins, international director of the OCA (US) and Via Organica (Mexico), and member of the RI Steering Committee.
Moms Across America is thrilled that Monsanto will be held accountable for poisoning our people and the planet.
It is time for GMO toxic chemical farming and pollution to stop.
Buying organic supports your family's health and clarity, the soil's health and ability to absorb carbon, which reduces climate chaos.
Buying organic also supports more local small farmers and sends a message to our food system that we do not want toxic junk food.
We thank all our supporters for continuing to cause a shift in health and wellness by buying organic food and avoiding GMOs and toxic chemicals. The chemical companies only have the power to control the food supply and our government because we give them our money. When we stop buying it, they can't sell it and will no longer be able to buy our government.
Thank you for being a part of taking America back!
We especially want to thank the people who got glyphosate testing done and the moms who donated their breast milk. We hear from around the world that your commitment and generosity made a huge difference.
ありがとうございました！

Protecting Your Family from Weed Killer on our Food
Yesterday shared a very important, potentially life altering conversation with Dr. Zach Bush from Restore with our supporters.
We hope you will share it with the world.
Dr.Zach Bush clearly describes the impact of toxins on our gut health and what we can do about it!
We are committed to make a difference in what is happening in our country and improve health in our communities.
We are in a health crisis. 1 out of 2 of our children have a chronic illness. 1 out of 2 men and 1 out of 3 women are expected to get cancer in America. This not okay with us mothers and we are committed to turn this health crisis around. And we CAN!
Did you know that if your child has multiple allergies, rashes or even just irritability and learning focus challenges, that could indicate they have leaky gut? That means small holes in your child's small intestines are leaking unprocessed food and potentially medications into their blood stream and causing havoc in the immune system.
Did you know that Glyphosate (Roundup) weed killer sprayed on GMOs and non organic food, is allowed on 160 of our foods by the EPA at levels far above that which has shown to destroy gut bacteria? The gut bacteria is the stronghold of our immune system and is where Tryptophan is stored and made. Without Tryptophan our bodies cannot make Serotonin or Melatonin which regulate insulin, (diabetes) mental processing and illness, feeling satiated (obesity), bi polar and even acts of violence.
Glyphosate has been found in the majority of our environment and food: rain, tap water, air, streams and even in our cereal, honey, breast milk and cotton products. It is almost impossible to avoid.
Did you know that glyphosate can break down the blood brain barrier, allowing toxins into the brain such as chemical off gassing from fire retardent on pajamas, sofas and toxins in vaccines?
Did you know that glyphosate destroys the tight junctions of blood vessels, hampering the flow of nutrients to bones and organs, leading to osteoporosis, arthritis and more?
GUT HEALTH is essential to avoid the majority of illness, disorders and cancer!
 This earth derived product, Restore, discussed in this eye opening video, has been clinically tested and shown to restore the tight junctions of the git, build resistance of the cell walls to glyphosate and support overall gut and immune system health.
I was skeptical at first but when I learned how it works I knew this could reduce my anxiety, protect my family from exposure to the world's most widely used herbicide (that does not wash or cook off food) and potentially improve their health dramatically. We are thrilled to offer Restore and Active H2 (reduces inflammation which can lead to disease) on our new webstore! |
 We are grateful to the great team at Restore who is supporting Moms Across America by making it possible for the majority of the sales from our store to go directly to our non profit programs and educational outreach. We hope you will find good health and spread awareness around the world so we can all have healthy and prosperous futures for the generations to come. |

American's Speak Up Against the DARK ACT and for Mandatory GMO Labeling
Moms Across America, March Against Monsanto and Food Justice Team, Organic Consumers Association, Food Democracy Now, Truth in Labeling Coalition, lawyer Steven Druker, Anthony Gucciardi, Dr. Group, activists leaders from at least 12 states and supporters of mandatory GMO labeling descended upon Washington DC on 10月 16, 2015 just days before the Ag Committee hearing on 10月 21,2015.
The EPA refused to meet with Zen Honeycutt and Moms Across America.
Read Zen's speech outside the EPA here.
Zen made calls to action outside of the White House, to call the EPA 703-308-8187 to revoke the license of glyphosate (80% of GMOs are engineered to withstand glyphosate) and to call our Senators 202-224-3121 and demand GMO labeling.
Amber came from WA and Happel came from MD. Steven Druker of "Altered Genes, Twisted Truth"
Zen, Tami Canal Monroe of MAM and Amber of MAA Zen receives Food Advocacy Award from Food Justice Team
Outside of the White House
Outside of Monsanto
The Light Brigade light up the night with TRUTH.
Our voices were some of the last heard before the bio tech meeting which was supposed to be an unbiased discussion about labeling and the safety of GMOs.
It turned out to be a biased, Pro GMO discussion filled with lies. It turned out to be an opportunity for our Senators to intimidate and pressure the EPA, FDA and USDA representatives into speeding up the approval process for GMOs and related pesticides! It turned out to be a farce of democracy. Utterly disgusting and outrageous.
Over and over again our Senators ignored and denied the scientific studies showing harm from GMos and glyphosate, the world's most widely used herbicide which is allowed on 160 of our foods at levels far above which has been shown to cause harm.
Our moms feel betrayed and dismayed. We are speaking up to demand integrity in our government and food supply.
See our email sent out Friday.
Please take part in creating a future of health, justice and freedom by calling your Senator and Senator Pat Roberts and leaving them a message today. Thank you.
続きを読むGMOイニシアチブ：グローバルな優位性と嘘
Borlaug Dialogueは、GMO化学会社CTOのダウ、デュポン、モンサント、カーギルやランドオーレイクスなどの食品会社、大規模なAg農家、アフリカ銀行などの銀行、チェルシークリントン、トムビルサック、ウォーレンビュッフェの息子の国際シンポジウムです。 USDAの役人とアフリカ/アジアの高官。
彼らは多くのアフリカの女性農民に賞と称賛を与え、そして最新の「農業技術」の主張で彼らを魅了しました。どうやらGMOは今では「活動家の専門用語」なので、私が参加した2日間、彼らはほとんどその言葉に言及していませんでした。
ジュリー・ボーローグ（ロビン・オブライエンを討論した女性）が率いるアフリカの農民との小さなパネルで、特にアフリカに有機農法を導入することについて質問しました。 国連報告書「手遅れになる前に目を覚ます」 小さな有機農場が世界を養う唯一の方法であると述べました。彼らは、60の国際的な専門家によって作成されたこのレポートを否定し、「意見」としてそれを消し去った。ジュリー・ボーローグは「私はそこにいたが、それは真実ではない」と述べた。私がグリホサートの害をもたらし、アフリカの農民に近づくのを妨げたとき、彼らは私に去るように頼みました。とにかくウガンダからオフィシャルに行きました。後で1200の前の大きな部屋で、私はほとんど同じ質問をしました、そして人々は文字通り私にシューッという音を立てました。彼らがどれほど洗脳されたか、彼らがいかに露骨に害を無視したかはとても驚くべきことでした。
私の持ち帰りはこれです：
- 彼らは心配しています。 KevinFoltaのFOIAが言及されました。彼らは「そこは危険だ」と言った。女性に焦点を合わせ、FOIAの衰退は、私たちが前進していることを示している。
- 彼らは、私たちが世界に目立つ方法で世界を養うための解決策をもたらすまで、私たちを教育を受けておらず、フリンジで、感情的で、飢えている子供たちを気にしないとして解雇し続けます。 2050による910億は乗り越えのテーマでした。
- 彼らは大規模な方法でアフリカを追いかけています。彼らは、「彼らは最高の技術に値するので、他の誰も彼らが選択するのを止めてはならない。「私たちは選択する自由を持っているべきだ」と彼らを説得している。 「選択の自由」）彼らは彼らの資源と教育の不足を利用しており、私たちがそこに存在しない限り、私はその結果を本当に恐れています。
- 彼らは多くの新しいイニシアチブを持っています：中学校、高校、大学のプログラムのための無料のカリキュラム「バイオテクノロジーを生き生きとさせる」。彼らは私たちの若者を洗脳しています。大学生が私に言ったことはすべて、彼らの話の要点を混乱させていました。
- 彼らはアフリカでの漁業を推進しており、GMO飼料を魚に与えると確信しています。
- TPPがなぜそんなに多くの支持を持っているのかを学びました。大豆ととうもろこしの購入関税を80％引き下げます。彼らは安価で有毒な食品を世界中ではるかに簡単に売ることができます。カーギルのCEOは実際、「国内の食料安全保障を追求したいという衝動に抵抗する」と述べた。すなわち：米国があなたを養うようにしましょう！ TPPに合格！
その間、私たちは自分自身を助けなければなりません。

GMO、グリホサート、毒素、脳の健康に関するジョン・グレイ
It was with great honor and happiness that I interviewed Dr. John Gray, world renowned best selling author on Tuesday Sept 15th, 2015. When we met at the Autism One conference in the spring, he greeted me warmly, saying that he knew about and appreciated the work of Moms Across America (all of YOU!) and offered his support. I could sense that he is a person who is completely devoted to the well being of human kind and he meant it, so when I read an article about American's getting dementia in their 40's, I was reminded of a Brazilian study showing glyphosate causing neurotoxicity of the brain (brain cell death) and then thought of John Gray's recent book "Staying Focused in a Hyper World" about ADHD, memory loss and brain performance. I asked him for an interview and he was very generous to accept. He is compassionate, extremely intelligent, and a powerful speaker. It was truly a delight to meet and interview John Gray.
こちらのビオをご覧ください：
GMO、12:17のグリホサート、28:53 のタイレノール/アセトアミノフェン、その他の有毒物質への暴露、そして私たちの体と脳への影響について取り上げました。彼は、グリホサートが腸内細菌を破壊する方法について、細胞保護剤（抗グリホサートなど）であるグルタチオンの生成を停止し、ニューロンの細胞死に影響を与えることについて、明確で驚くべき説明をしています。私たちは、自閉症、パーキンソン病、ADHDについて何ができるかを調べ、脳のパフォーマンスを回復し、危険な副作用を伴う合成化学薬品の寿命を逃れます。彼は35：06で癌、GCMAF、ブラッドスティート博士に触れています。多くの人が、これがこれまでの最高の面接だったと言っています。
There were many topics we did not get to. And there are so many possibilities of renewed health for you and your family. I strongly urge you to buy his book at www.marsvenus.com or watch his free videos on a variety of topics.
彼のサプリメントは絶賛されており、私は彼のスーパーミネラルの1週間後、個人的に幸せで、集中力があり、生産的だと感じています。
http://www.marsvenus.com/list/john-gray-mars-venus-health
The fact is we are all being exposed to glyphosate, which is a chelator, meaning it "holds or makes unavailable", the vital nutrients of any living thing it touches. So we could be eating very healthy food, lots of vegetables and fruits, have a filter on our water faucet and still be vitamin and mineral deficient because glyphosate, in our food, water, air and rain, is grabbing onto those vitamins and minerals and making them unavailable to our bodies. This impacts our brain and overall health, relationships, performance and happiness.
ですから、私たちが必要とするビタミンやミネラルで私たちの体をサポートすることが重要です。あなたそれを買う余裕があれば、それを試してみてください、それをあなたの将来への投資と考えてください。適切なミネラルを摂取することで、不安を軽減し、循環的な強迫観念や気を散らす行動を止め、より幸せで生産性を高めることができます。すべてのサポーターの皆様に心よりお祈り申し上げます。私たちは成功し、アメリカで健康と自由を創造するために私たちのゲームのトップにいる必要があります！
ジョン・グレイと彼のサポートスタッフに、世界中の幸福をサポートするためにあなたがするすべてのことに感謝と抱擁をします。あなたは素敵だ！

CA EPA Considers Labeling Glyphosate ( Roundup) a Carcinogen
From reporter Carey Gilliam at Reuter's:
の “notice of intent” envisions placing Glyphosate within 30 days to the list of chemicals that are known to cause cancer, classification of which falls under the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, or the Proposition 65. Under the Act any chemicals that threatens human life require a businesses to provide a "clear and reasonable" warning label before exposing individuals to a chemical on the list.
In March the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified glyphosate as being “probably” carcinogenic to humans forcing the agrochemical giant Monsanto to furiously reject the conclusions.

At Moms Across America we are thrilled that the CA EPA is considering taking the lead in acknowledging the harm that glyphosate, the most widely used herbicide in the world, is causing to our residents. California has the most toxic water in America, besides Hawaii, as stated in a recent water report due to chemical farming. We wish our federal EPA would also have the courage to acknowledge the harm from glyphosate and take action.
We want to take a moment to acknowledge the dedicated people at the CA Guild who worked with the Environmental Working Group to propose this classification. It is the courage and commitment of citizens like them who can literally change the world, one state, one country at a time. It is not easy, it is not popular and it is not well paid...but the generosity of these people prevails and we THANK YOU so much!
We also want to thank all the supporters who sent in their tap water, urine and breast milk to test for glyphosate and raise awareness. You can still get your water and urine tested for glyphosate (and soon breast milk) at www.momsacrossamerica.com/action. Please get tested if you can. These new tests are deemed valid by the EPA and will make a huge difference for our cause.
We also ask the federal EPA- if you acknowledge that glyphosate is a "reproductive effector" and "causes liver and kidney damage" on your fact sheet and now a "probable carcinogen" as stated by the World Health Organization, why would you allow glyphosate on our food at all?
Why not protect the people and revoke the license and ban glyphosate from sale or use?
Could it be that our government regulatory agencies feel pressured by the chemical companies?
Does the EPA think the few hundred lawyers who work for Monsanto are more important than the millions of mothers, fathers, children and babies who are sick in America today from toxic exposure?
Does the EPA think that the pressure of the chemical companies is more formidable than the grief from a lost loved one?
1 out of 2 males and 1 out of 3 females are EXPECTED to get cancer today in America. This is NOT normal. This is caused by environmental toxins and we MUST Take action to reduce the exposure of our communities to toxic chemicals.
1 out of 2 children in America have a chronic illness such as autism, asthma, auto immune disorders, allergies, diabetes or obesity. Many of these illnesses are accompanied by inflammation which can lead to cancer and many studies point to glyphosate as a major contributing factor. Glyphosate is allowed on 160 of our foods by the EPA at levels FAR above what has been shown to destroy gut bacteria and promote pathogenic gut bacteria, which leads not only to leaky gut and a weakened immune system, but to the gut brain connection signaling the brain to create excitotoxins, which cause neurotoxicity. This is where erratic behavior, memory loss, loss of IQ tics and stammering in autistic children or adults with dementia appear. Dementia is now affecting adults in their 40's and 50's. Toxins are destroying the potential of America.
The fact is that our children and loved ones are the collateral damage for a war on bugs and weeds that was fabricated by the chemical companies for profit. Our farmers have farmed for thousands of years before GMOs, without cancer causing chemicals, and they can and are in many cases, farming even better now. Organic and bio dynamic food is more nutritious, better tasting, has less synthetic chemicals if not none, and has a greater yield. See the Rodale Institute 30 year report for more info. We have faith in our farmers! They are ingenious, they can farm as they have for thousands of years, without toxic chemicals.
So yes, while glyphosate is being permitted on our food, which is completely unacceptable, LABEL IT DANGEROUS. Within two weeks labels can be printed and applied. But within 2 months, recalls should be enacted and these products should be removed from the shelves. The spraying of glyphosate as a desiccant and on our food crops should be stopped immediately. The fact is that the longer we allow glyphosate and toxic chemicals to be sprayed on our food, the more we destroy the microbes and nutrients in the soil, promote drought and loss of top soil, reduce the nutritional content in our food, weaken the immune system and impact the health of Americans and diminish the prosperity of our country.
Our farmers have already found alternatives. Look up http://growbetterfood.com/john-kempf/.
We, as families and as a country, cannot afford glyphosate. We cannot afford chemical farming.
Our families are priceless. Our country is priceless.
Let's treat it with honor and respect and stop chemical farming altogether.
The EPA: Do not sell the health and future of America to the most intimidating chemical company.
Be strong, stand your ground, do your job, protect the American people.
Thank you.
