GM Salmon Postponed For Now. September 30, 2010 by Lynn Swearingen | Edit Lynn Swearingen (c) copyright 2010 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED Eleven US Senators have signed a letter to FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg urging the agency to find another way to assess the safety of genetically engineered (GE) salmon. The letter to Hamburg claims that the FDA is using an inappropriate process to assess the salmon’s safety and asks the agency to “halt all proceedings”, saying that potential human health and environmental impacts have not been fully or openly reviewed.
