House votes to bar country of origin meat labels
The House approved a measure to stop the Agriculture Department from requiring country of origin labeling for beef pork lamb and other meats sold in the United States. The 268 to 193 vote would exempt meat products from the labeling rule already crafted in a farm bill and slated to start by 2004, a move supporters say would raise costs for grocers and processors while opponents argue it aids consumer information and traceability.
