Senators introduce the bipartisan DAIRY PRIDE Act to prevent mislabeling of non-dairy products as dairy.
Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Senators Peter Welch, Tammy Baldwin, Jim Risch, and Susan Collins have reintroduced the bipartisan DAIRY PRIDE Act, aimed at preventing the mislabeling of non-dairy products as dairy. The legislation seeks to enforce regulations requiring non-dairy items, such as those made from plants or nuts, to avoid using dairy terminology that could confuse consumers.
Senator Welch emphasized, "This bill will give our farmers much needed support...to thrive," while Senator Baldwin noted that imitation dairy products mislead consumers regarding nutritional quality. The act mandates that the FDA provide guidance on labeling within 90 days of enactment, a response to concerns over current practices that undermine dairy producers.
Support for the bill includes prominent agricultural organizations, indicating a broad consensus on the need for clearer labeling standards. This legislative effort is a continuation of the senators' commitment to support the dairy industry and promote fair competition in the marketplace.
