Meat inspection rules eyed to allow state approved meat in interstate trade
Washington officials urged changing federal rules so meat and poultry inspected by state programs can move across state lines. USDA official Donald Houston said states have proven capable of sound inspection, despite current limits that permit interstate commerce only for federally approved products. The push drew support from several state and processor groups while producers criticized the plan. Republican lawmakers pressed administration for responsive policy ahead of elections, citing efforts led by Rep. Cooper Evans and influence from Sen. Roger Jepsen and Agriculture Secretary John Block.
