Slipped into the Agricultural Appropriations Bill, which passed through Congress last week, was a small provision thats a big deal for Monsanto and its opponents. The provision protects genetically modified seeds from litigation in the face of health risks and has thus been dubbed the Monsanto Protection Act by activists who oppose the biotech giant. President Barack Obama signed the spending bill, including the provision, into law on Tuesday

ok i think this ranks up there with the CPSIA was a shitty law this is almost if not worse.
