LABEL Act

This bill changes federal labeling rules for fish sold to consumers under the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946. For both farm-raised and wild fish, the country of origin and whether the fish is wild or farm-raised would have to be shown in a conspicuous place, in a font at least as large as the text describing the fish. The country of origin and the wild or farm-raised designation would have to appear together in one combined statement. If the fish is sold in a consumer package, the label would have to be on the front of the package. These rules would take effect one year after the bill becomes law.
