Concerns regarding Prop 12 relative to animal welfare. Supported GT's solution to Prop 12 - Section 12007 from H.R.8467 the 118th Congress, which would establish USDA and FDA as the national standard for food that can be moved between state lines. Concerns regarding New World Screwworm. Concerns regarding HPAI. Concerns regarding the Monarch Butterfly listing (Docket #: FWS-R3-ES-2024-0137-0001). Concerns regarding Fish and Wildlife Service's depredation permits. Reviewed APHIS' final rule (89 FR 39194-39251) to make changes to the Horse Protection Act that would impact members involved in the equestrian industry. SUPPORTED THE FOLLOWING BILLS: - H.R.3915, the Foreign Animal Disease Prevention, Surveillance, and Rapid Response Act, which would increase funding to fight foreign animal disease and extend authorization for the Animal Health Protection Act through 2030. - S.1823/H.R.2462, the Black Vulture Relief Act, which would allow livestock producers to take black vultures without a permit if the bird is causing death or injury to their animals. - H.R. 1897, the ESA Amendments Act, which would update the outdated ESA by establishing clear statutory definitions, focusing on species recovery, and streamlining the ESA permitting process. - S.574/H.R.1376, the Healthy Poultry Assistance and Indemnification Act, which would make all poultry growers and layer operations within a HPAI control area eligible to receive payments from APHIS compensation program, rather than only flocks that test positive. - H.R.845, the Pets and Livestock Protection Act, which would delist the gray wolf from the ESA to protect livestock. - S.1751/H.R.3392, the STOP Screwworms Act, which would require the USDA Secretary to establish one or more facilities in the U.S. to disperse sterile New World screwworm flies to combat infestations and prevent their spread.
