Didn't see this posted anywhere so I thought I would drop some snips about it.
To me this is really important - because what we have is a corporation that manipulated legislation - in their favor - for the sole purpose of protecting their market share and increasing corporate profits. (Won't use the "f" word - even though that is what this is.)
I believe we have to take a stand on this -
There's still time to plan an event in your area - one has been posted here for Idaho.

With President Obama's recent signing of the Monsanto Protection Act, food safety advocates are up in arms. As GMOs fill grocery store shelves at an alarming rate, more people are growing aware of the health risks associated with genetically altered organisms. People are growing tired of this disease-promoting, genetically manipulated food. They are sick of controlling multinational corporations like Monsanto dictating their food supply.
That's why on May 25th 2013, rallies across the world are organizing, from Australia to Germany, from New York to California. A March against Monsanto is expected to take place.

Monsanto Protection Act awakening the republic
This new "Monsanto Protection Act" signed on March 26th, 2013, gives executive powers to the USDA that grant permission to companies like Monsanto to sell its genetically modify seed to farmers without any judicial accountability.
The provision is written in a way to assure farmers a profitable and safe venture with GMO seed, but in reality, this law is designed to grant GMO producers like Monsanto legal immunity from the health problems their products will cause down the road.
This provision removes the judicial system from the picture, allowing Monsanto to dominate agriculture, selling genetically altered seed to farmers and damaging human genes - all without any real justice.
Government complying to Monsanto's demands, despite health risks
Dave Murphy, founder of Food Democracy Now, said, "I think the Monsanto Protection Act, how it was passed and how it was slipped into law is just another example of how this company (Monsanto) operates, how they manipulate our democracy, and how they buy off our elected officials."
Be part of something really big - huge!
The whole world is watching.
Have fun - be safe.
