South Dakota Senator Mike Rounds who supports mandatory Country of Origin Labeling for beef and pork says the practice of the USDA allowing foreign beef to be repackaged and labeled as a product of the USA must end, “And because they repackage it our Department of Ag says it now can have a voluntary label of “Product of the USA” on it. Now if that isn’t false advertising, I don’t know what is! That’s got to stop.”
And he says COOL must be mandatory and must be a part of any future trade negotiations, “I didn’t think that a couple years ago but I do now.
