Other tariff and trade disrupting issues affecting pet food manufacturers. Specifically supports suspending, reducing, or eliminating tariffs which currently hinder or food and agriculture exports - including the China 301 tariffs which have had a disproportionate economic impact on American companies, consumers and workers. 7.

If enacted, these bills expand and extend through FY2029 the Market Access Program and Foreign Market Development Cooperator Program of the Department of Agriculture. These programs are critical for our nations farmers as they work to expand global market access for U.S. produced agricultural exports, including pet food. 12. Supports the U.S. Federal Trade Commission extending the public comment period for Guides for the Use of Environmental Marketing Claims ("Green Guides" or the "Guides") by 60 days. Also supports the Guides serving as a standard for environmental marketing across industries, to ensure that consumers receive truthful and accurate information regarding environmental benefit claims. 13. Supports H.R.3653 and S.629: To provide the President with authority to enter into a comprehensive trade agreement with the United Kingdom, and for other purposes. 14. Supports S.1421 - Country Of Origin Labeling Online Act. To require origin and location disclosure for new products of foreign origin offered for sale on the internet.
