Meat Limits Shifted as Agriculture Chief Gained Veto Power
The House approved an amendment to the OPA extension bill making Clinton P. Anderson the food czar with veto power over all food regulations. The 154 to 146 vote backed by Republicans and some Democrats requires written approval within 90 days for any order. The measure allows sale of nonfederally inspected meats in interstate commerce with Anderson's certification and aims to ease a meat shortage amid reports of livestock abundance.
