2786406	edd7c34f-d874-44cd-96e6-1dd24a4790f5	Q1	TEXAS FARM BUREAU	37881	TEXAS FARM BUREAU	2022	first_quarter	FOO	TFB is concerned about labeling fake meat which is cultured in a lab or made from plants. TFB has told leaders in D.C. that inaccurate or misleading labeling of lab-grown or plant products as meat poses a threat to agriculture and consumers that rely on nutrient-dense, safe meat products. TFB asks for the USDA to oversee the food safety aspects and labeling of these products. TFB supports a meat processing bill authored by Reps. Henry Cuellar and Dusty Johnson of South Dakota, the DIRECT Act will allow State Inspected (MPI) meat to be sold across state lines, but only through e-commerce, allowing small producers and processors more options to directly market to consumers. The legislation allows new flexibilities without compromising food safety recall ability or jeopardizing trade market access through equivalency agreements.
