TITLE II—GENETICALLY ENGI-

ITY 
SEC. 201. SHORT TITLE. 
This title may be cited as the ‘‘Genetically Engi-
neered Organism Liability Act of 2011’’. 
SEC. 202. FINDINGS. 
Congress finds the following: 
(1) The negative consequences of genetically en-
gineered crops may impact farmers who grow these 
crops, neighbor farmers who do not grow these 
crops, and consumers. 
(2) Biotech companies are selling a technology 
that is being commercialized ahead of the new and 
unknown science of genetic engineering. 
(3) Farmers may suffer from crop failures, 
neighbor and nearby farmers may suffer from cross 
pollination, increased insect resistance, and un-
wanted volunteer genetically engineered plants, and 
consumers may suffer from health and environ-
mental impacts. 
(4) Therefore, biotech companies should be 
found liable for the failures of genetically engineered 
crops when they arise.

SEC. 203. LIABILITY. 
(a) CAUSE OF ACTION.—A biotech company, includ-
ing a person acting in accordance with Federal, State, or 
local law, is liable to any party injured by the release of 
a genetically engineered organism into the environment if 
that injury results from such genetic engineering. The pre-
vailing plaintiff in an action under this subsection may 
recover reasonable attorney’s fees and other litigation ex-
penses as a part of the costs. 
(b) NOT WAIVABLE.—The liability created by sub-
section (a) may not be waived or otherwise avoided by con-
tract. 
(c) DEFINITION.—As used in this section, the term 
‘‘biotech company’’ means a person— 
(1) engaged in the business of genetically engi-
neering an organism; or 
(2) obtaining the patent rights to such an orga-
nism for the purposes of commercial exploitation of 
that organism.
