Carter vetoes rabbit meat inspection bill as special interest legislation
President Carter calls a government rabbit meat inspection program a special interest bill that would benefit few Americans and raise costs. He warns it could strain relations with China while noting no substantiated health problem and pointing to a voluntary industry program already in place. The veto follows his earlier move against an $80 million nuclear bill. The rabbit industry, with sales above $10 million annually, argues consumers would lose in the end. One producer cites growth potential and parallels to early poultry industry progress.

FTC raps credit statute loopholes and discrimination fears
The FTC and Sen William Proxmire condemn Fed Reserve Board staff revisions to credit interpretations that could enable racial gender and religious bias in lending. They urge withdrawal, arguing the changes erode civil rights protections and shift enforcement away from stopping discriminatory credit denial. The revisions target a 1975 law and face public comment and possible Fed action next week.
