Let's Get This Bill Passed

New Bill Would Require Products to Disclose Gluten-Containing Grains on Labels

if passed, manufacturers would be required to disclose all gluten-containing grains in a product.C urrently, wheat is the only gluten-containing grain that is required to be disclosed on food and beverage labels. If the legislation passes, barley and rye ingredients would also need to be listed. Because barley and rye ingredients may be included in ingredients such as malt, yeast, and flavorings, but not always, people with celiac disease and other gluten-related disorders may be at a loss to know if they can safely consume that item. This bill would take out much of that guess work.

Please contact your representatives and senators to urge them to support this bill. Get started by copying and pasting the following sample letter to share with your representatives. Adding personal stories and experiences is also encouraged.
