POWER OF PERSISTENCE: ANNUAL REPORT 2025

For more than 25 years, CFS has been on the front lines of a fight that defines our future. Today, that persistence matters more than ever. In a time of profound political uncertainty and an alarming assault on science, environmental protections, and the rule of law, our resolve has only grown stronger.

Every legal challenge, every victory, every act of courage is made possible by people like you who refuse to surrender our food, our health, or our planet to corporate greed. Thanks to your steadfast support, CFS remains a force that cannot be silenced or sidelined. And we will keep pushing forward, watchdogging the current administration, going to court, and educating stakeholders and the public to build a powerful grassroots movement; to build a better future for our food and safeguard our food and environment for generations to come. Thank you for standing with us in the pursuit of an equitable, humane, and just food system. 

It's been another year of progress. Here is some of what we've accomplished in 2025, together:

• Two major court victories with nationwide impacts, overturning the federal government's attempt to completely un-regulate GMO crops and experiments, and stopping the establishment of an industrial aquaculture industry in federal ocean waters for the first time ever.
• A monumental court victory striking down the federal government's exemption of ultra-processed foods from mandatory "bioengineered" (formerly GMO) labeling, securing your right to know what's in your food.
• Shutting down the construction of a 3.5 million chicken mega-factory farm right next to a valley of small organic farmers and salmon-bearing river in Oregon.
• And because of our victory striking down the approval of Monsanto's dicamba, we saved thousands of small farmers and hundreds of endangered species from millions of pounds of dicamba spraying over millions of acres.

We've made other numerous advancements in our ongoing legal, policy, and campaign actions. Please see our full Annual Report below.
