Get Monsanto Out of Our Public Schools!

Get Monsanto Out of Our Public Schools!

The Issue

Monsanto is in our schools. They are using our children for their corporate agendas, and the parents of Hawai'i keiki have had enough.

Waialua Elementary installed a plaque at the entrance of the school to give thanks to Monsanto. A few months later, they had the children thanking them again at a May Day celebration. 

There have been articles in papers all over the state about Monsanto and they are now asking permission to use our children in advertising for the company. 

How much further will this go before anyone steps in and does something to protect our kids? Since the government isn't hearing us, we are exercising our democratic voice! We want them GONE! We want a say in how our children are brought up and who is influencing them! 

We want Monsanto out of our schools and we want to force them to quit indoctrinating our children with their poison. 

No corporate entity should be allowed to use their name, the names of their affiliates/associations, or their money to support their corporate greed. 

By signing this petition, you are telling the State Government and the Department of Education that you will no longer allow Monsanto or any other company to buy our children, especially when they are disregarding our health and well-being for the sake of profit. 

A'ole GMO!
