San Francisco, CA, January 23, 2008 - Today, farmers, food safety advocates, 
and conservation groups filed suit in federal court challenging the 
deregulation of herbicidetolerant "Roundup Ready" sugar beets by the Animal 
and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) of the U.S. Department of 
Agriculture (USDA). Attorneys from the Center for Food Safety and 
Earthjustice are representing plaintiffs Organic Seed Alliance, Sierra Club, 
High Mowing Organic Seeds, and the Center for Food Safety in the lawsuit, 
which seeks a thorough assessment of environmental, health, and associated 
economic impacts of the deregulation as required by federal law.
