The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has finalized a rule to combat 'Made in USA' fraud, ensuring that the 'Product of the USA' label can only be used on meat, eggs, and poultry from animals that are born, raised, slaughtered, and processed in the United States. This move, aimed at eliminating fraud and promoting transparency, has been welcomed by various stakeholders, including farmers, ranchers, legislators, and the Milk and Egg Bureau in Montana. The new rule is expected to benefit both producers and consumers by providing clarity and preventing misleading practices.
Shoppers who want to determine if their meat, eggs and poultry were “Made in the USA” are expected to find the task easier once a finalized federal rule takes effect. https://t.co/UsRXN0Sdc8
✅ Born in the USA ✅ Raised in the USA ✅ Slaughtered in the USA ✅ Processed in the USA “Product of the USA” should mean it’s American beef from ranch to table. I’m glad USDA’s rule closes a loophole and meets producer and consumer expectations.
Glad to see that @USDA finalized a rule to address the Product of the USA labeling loophole. An important step to ensure only products from animals that are born, raised, & harvested in the U.S. can have this label — creating transparency that benefits both producers & consumers.
An utterly inadequate response to the disgraceful comments by the largest Tory Party donor Frank Hester about Diane Abbott. Rudeness doesn’t cover it. They should condemn the comments unequivocally & return the money https://t.co/19ysuwANyT
1. For years farmers & ranchers explained how "Made in USA" fraud tricks customers and punishes honest businesses. A @USDA rule now says "Made in the USA" labels can be used only on products from animals born, raised, slaughtered, and processed in the US. https://t.co/juOEeGx95w
