right to know | right to know | anti-GMO | Whereas, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, in 2019 the United States imported six billion pounds of edible seafood products, including one and one half billion pounds of shrimp, an increase of nearly six and one half million pounds more than the shrimp imported in 2018; and Whereas, the 2019 shrimp imports alone, valued at six billion dollars, accounted for twenty-seven percent of the total value of imported seafood that year, which reached twenty-two billion dollars; and Whereas, it is estimated that over half of the imported seafood consumed in the United States is from aquaculture, or seafood farming, rather than wild-caught; and Whereas, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is responsible for the safety of all fish and fishery products entering the United States and sold in Louisiana; and Whereas, the FDA's seafood safety program is governed by its Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point regulations, which address food safety management through the analysis and control of biological, chemical, and physical hazards from raw material production, procurement and handling, to manufacturing, distribution, and consumption of the finished product; and Whereas, FDA regulations are supposed to measure compliance for imported seafood with inspections of foreign processing facilities, sampling of seafood offered for import into the United States, domestic surveillance sampling of imported products, inspections of seafood importers, foreign country program assessments, and the use of information from foreign partners and FDA overseas offices; and Whereas, in 2011 the FDA was only inspecting two percent of the seafood imported into the United States; and Whereas, unfortunately 2011 is the last year for which data regarding the percentage of imports inspected is available due to a lack of transparency and inadequate assessment measures; and Whereas, in 2011 the Government Accountability Office (GAO) noted that the FDA's assessments of foreign aquaculture operations was limited by the FDA's lack of procedures, criteria, and standards; and ten years later, a 2021 GAO report found that the agency was failing to monitor the effectiveness of its own enforcement policies and procedures; and Whereas, in contrast, the European Union regularly conducts physical checks of approximately twenty percent of all imported fish products that are fresh, frozen, dry, salted, or hermetically sealed, and for certain fishery products, physical checks are conducted on approximately fifty percent of imports; and Whereas, the Louisiana State University School of Renewable Natural Resources published a 2020 paper titled `Determination of Sulfite and Antimicrobial Residue in Imported Shrimp to the USA', which presented findings from a study of shrimp imported from India, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, China, Bangladesh, and Ecuador and purchased from retail stores in Baton Rouge, Louisiana; and Whereas, a screening of these shrimp for sulfites and residues from antimicrobial drugs found the following: (1) five percent of the shrimp contained malachite green, (2) seven percent contained oxytetracycline, (3) seventeen percent contained fluoroquinolone, and (4) seventy percent contained nitrofurantoin, all of which have been banned by the FDA in domestic aquaculture operations; and Whereas, although the FDA requires that food products exposed to sulfites must include a label with a statement about the presence of sulfites, of the forty-three percent of these locally purchased shrimp found to contain sulfites, not one package complied with this labeling requirement; and Whereas the drug and sulfite residues included in this screening, can be harmful to human health during both handling and consumption and have been known to cause all of the following: liver damage and tumors, reproductive abnormalities, cardiac arrhythmia, renal failure, hemolysis, asthma attacks, and allergic reactions; and Whereas, the results of this study confirm that existing screening and enforcement measures for imported seafood are insufficient; whatever the percentage of imports inspected may be, seafood is currently being imported that contains unsafe substances that put American consumers at risk; and Whereas, because imported seafood is not held to the same standards as domestic seafood, domestic fishing industries are put at a distinct and significant disadvantage commercially; and Whereas, according to the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, the average value of Louisiana shrimp fell from three dollars eighty cents per pound in 1980 to one dollar fifty cents per pound in 2017; and Whereas, this unfair competition allows foreign competitors to flood the United States market with shrimp harvested under intensive farming practices using antimicrobial drugs, while devastating local industries and the coastal communities built around them; and Whereas, Louisiana passed a law in 2019 requiring food service establishments to provide notice to patrons that they are serving shrimp imported from, a foreign country; and Whereas, Louisiana Revised Statute 40:5.5.4 requires any food service establishment that sells or provides cooked or prepared shrimp originating outside the United States to display the country of origin of such shrimp, or denote that it is imported, on all menus in the same font as the rest of the menu, or if no menu is used, to display such information on a sign at least eighteen inches tall and wide, located in a conspicuous place, with lettering at least one inch in size; and Whereas, like Louisiana consumers, consumers across the United States deserve to be protected from harmful chemicals and residues found in imported shrimp; and Whereas, consumers across the United States likewise have the right to know whether the shrimp prepared and served to them in food service establishments are imported; therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives of the Legislature of Louisiana does hereby memorialize the United States Congress to enact federal legislation requiring food service establishments to provide notice to patrons if they are serving imported shrimp; and be it further Resolved, That a copy of this Resolution be transmitted to the presiding officers of the Senate and the House of Representatives of Congress and to each member of the Louisiana congressional delegation. | 06/15/2020 | Unknown | S | null | @unitedstatesproject | Eliminating genetic engineering in the food industry | Formal | null |

affirmative action | affirmative action | racist | By contrast, during the eons which shaped us, a woman would have been unfortunate to have experienced more than 10 or so menstruations in a lifetime. She would have been pregnant or weaning, enjoying the oxytocin-mediated mechanism of bonding with her family. Now, she must go out and compete in the workplace, where entry may have been facilitated by quota placements, affirmative action and box-ticking.... but stress can't be completely eliminated. Problem is, females don't cope very well with stress. Nature wants them to withdraw from it, to protect their fertility.
