@SimmonsBart There was an opportunity for an executive order on MCOOL that was blocked by the USDA and was replaced by a voluntary nothing burger label MCOOL congressionally will take a MASSIVE coordinated effort and pressure campaign Not impossible, but people have to get ready to fight

Politics. I like what is in the proposed Farm Bill. MCOOL did not make it in the Bill. What a shame. 2SRanch.com
R-CALF USA@RCALFUSA

The House passed the Farm Bill this morning: ✅ PRIME Act: expanding opportunities for local processing and direct-to-consumer sales. @RepThomasMassie ✅ Checkoff transparency — requiring USDA to publicly post key financial information, including audit reports and ongoing updates. @RepSpartz ✅ Grasslands Grazing Act to bring grazing permits on National Grasslands in line with other federal lands. @RepHageman ✅ Banning China, Russia, Iran, and other foreign adversaries from purchasing American farmland @RepGregSteube Not included: • MCOOL was not allowed a vote • EID repeal failed on the floor (69–355) Next step: The Senate We’re working every angle to get MCOOL across the finish line and to overturn the EID mandate, including pushing for these provisions in the Senate’s version of the Farm Bill.

The Farm Bill has a lot of issues, but the inclusion of the PRIME Act was a clear win; It is designed to free up intrastate trade (which the Federal Government should not be involved with in the first place), to allow a pathway for farm-to-consumer sales of beef, pork, and (gasp) lamb raised locally.

My PRIME Act pilot program passed the House of Representatives today! It’s a real game changer for small farmers, and especially for consumers who want wholesome beef, pork, and lamb raised locally.

NEXT STOP MCOOL 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

🔥The Farm Bill that includes my 🥩 PRIME Act pilot just passed the House! This is a game changer for farmers — and provides access to locally raised beef, pork, and lamb for consumers! We also stripped the immunity/state labeling ban for pesticides from the Farm Bill. MAHA!

Agricultural producers on the brink Compound this with the fact that SIXTY PERCENT of the lower 48 are facing severe drought Drought covers 95% of cotton, 97% of peanut areas, 83% of rice, and 68% of winter wheat, with major production regions in the South and Plains heavily impacted We’re in for some rough times in Ag 😩

A #StraitofHormuz blockade could drive up #prices for #fertilizers, which have already spiked by more than 40% from last year. Combined with gas and diesel costs, the price of producing food will skyrocket. newsnationnow.com/business/your-…

@4windsbar @MeriwetherFarms This whole data center thing is a flash in the pan. Its a feeding frenzy over government money by the same outfits that were competing for the inflation reduction act money a few years ago.

This is great news In the last 10 years, roughly 30 million acres of farmland have gone out of production — and that number is only going up Also, this country is experiencing an alarming drought, and a lot of cattle producers out west are already on edge about what to do with their herds because there’s not going to be much grass this summer Data centers take up acreage and resources that this country needs desperately to feed ourselves!

SORRY BUT IF WE CAN USE EXECUTIVE ACTION TO SHIELD MULTINATIONAL FOREIGN PESTICIDE CORPORATIONS FROM LIABILITY WE CAN USE EXECUTIVE ACTION TO MANDATE FOREIGN MEAT PACKING CORPORATIONS TO PLACE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN LABELS ON THEIR MEAT PRODUCTS
Meriwether Farms@MeriwetherFarms

There is a MASSIVE propaganda campaign swirling around about Mandatory Country of Origin Labeling (MCOOL), so let’s debunk 1. Executive vs Legislative Action Talking points have been circulated on how MCOOL can only be solved with Legislative Action. You know what we say? BULLSHIT One year ago today, the Trump Administration introduced sweeping tariffs via executive action. They didn’t sit there waiting on the Congress to act — the Administration forced the tariffs to be challenged in court. And then even after the Supreme Court struck them down, The President doubled down and implemented a 10% flat across the board There was an Executive Order on MCOOL that was being prepared for last SIX MONTHS that was SHOT DOWN by USDA leadership. MCOOL could have been implemented in the same way under various National Security authorities considering it is a SEVERE National Security threat to American Citizens that they still don’t know where their food is coming from A VOLUNTARY label does not solve this threat 2. MCOOL Bill A snowflake has a better chance surviving in Hell than the current MCOOL bill getting out of the Agriculture Committee. Almost every single member of the Ag Committee is totally controlled by the Big Packers via the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association (NCBA) Unless a fresh MCOOL bill is reintroduced in a different committee, citing specific national security concerns, the BigPacker lobby will do ANYTHING they can to block it via members they control. And it would also require a MASSIVE mobilization campaign to BULLY new members into signing on, which is not going to happen during the midterms Executive Action was and still is the best hope 3. World Trade Organization (WTO) The President has essentially pulled out of the WTO with his actions on tariffs, so why are we pretending that we still need to comply? In 2015, when MCOOL was repealed, the excuse was because of a trade dispute filed with the WTO because of NAFTA (which is now USMCA) SO WHY ARE WE STILL LETTING AN INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION DICTATE A POLICY THAT IF IMPLEMENTED WOULD PROTECT AMERICAN PRODUCERS AND CONSUMERS We’re sick of the gaslighting, we’re sick of the betrayal by the very people who claim to fighting for the independent producer, and we will never settle for a DO NOTHING policy The American People Deserve Better!

We hope the next AG will be actually willing to pursue President Trump's desire to investigate and PROSECUTE the Foreign Beef Packers! NO MORE SMOKE AND MIRRORS!
