USCA opposed USDA's proposed plan to implement a rule to allow additional imports of meat from Brazil, despite Brazil's problem with foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) USCA supported the removal of Brucella Abortus from the Toxic Substances and Disease Control and Prevention Select Agent List USCA opposed S.727/H.R.503. The improperly titled "Prevention of Equine Cruelty Act" seeks to criminalize the ownership or transport of horses with the intent to send them to slaughter. USCA supported S.1062 - the Beef Checkoff Modernization Act amends the Beef Research and Information Act to allow the promotion of beef that is born and raised exclusively in the United States, allow the establishment of an importers qualified beef council to promote nondomestic beef, and to establish new referendum requirements. USCA supported strengthening antitrust laws and ensuring fair market competition. Congress needs to increase market transparency by addressing captive supply contracts, mandatory price reporting, and packer ownership of cattle. USCA supported S.1086- the Livestock Marketing Fairness Act amends Packers and Stockyards Act, 1921, to prohibit the use of certain anti-competitive forward contracts. USCA worked on USDA's newly proposed nimal disease traceability program. USCA supported existing updating existing animal identification systems. USCA's opposed a national, privatized, mandatory animal identification system. USCA provided information to the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Congress regarding a Beef Checkoff contractor USCA opposed S.3263/H.R. 5105. This bill establishes a Chief Veterinary Officer (CVO) in the Department of Homeland Security. USCA opposed this bill because it creates a duplicative position of CVO. This is completely unwarranted and would lead to confusion within the U.S. Agriculture industry, among our trading partners and the international animal health community. USCA provided information to the U.S. Department of Agriculture regarding competition in the beef/cattle marketplace and strengthening antitrust laws. USCA supported the U.S. Department of Agriculture's proposed rule to increase fairness of livestock marketing. USCA worked with the House, Senate, and USDA to reauthorize the price reporting law.
