    Hi there I am in Venezuela and regarding this Law it has not been passed. The Assembly was about to pass it last week, but because of administrative matters the approval was postponed, not sure if its for this week or before the sessions close on January 4th of 2016.
    I dont know where you got the information that it had passed

    1. “The National Assembly of Venezuela, in its final session before a neoliberal dominated opposition takes the helm of legislative power on January 5, passed one of the most progressive seed laws in the world on December 23, 2015; it was promptly signed into law by President Nicolas Maduro.”

      The question now is whether it will stand – due to the right-wing nature of the neofascist opposition that now controls Parliament and is itself controlled by corporations (including Monsanto) and Big Money.

  2. USA! USA! has been trying to overthrow Venezuela for years. I.e., the corporations that now control nearly every aspect of US government and citizen life are trying to overthrow it. The socialist reforms made under Chávez benefited the non-rich, and the plutocracy can’t stand it. Recently, e.g., a millionth house was provided to a family in need.
