NCBA sent a mass text to cattle producers this week. The text called MCOOL supporters "activists." It said mandatory country of origin labeling is "failed policy" and "pro-government, not pro-consumer or pro-cattleman." It claimed MCOOL would cost the industry $1 billion a year. The text had NCBA letterhead. You...

Farm Action’s Joe Maxwell just went to Washington and sounded the alarm: America’s ranchers are in “CRISIS.” “We cannot afford a food supply where foreign beef fills the gap while American ranchers go out of business.” And he named the first step that the Trump Administration can take to reverse this crisis: “Reinstating Mandatory Country of Origin Labeling for beef and pork must be a top U.S. priority in the 2026 USMCA review.” “This is urgent regarding our food security, the survival of independent ranchers, and the long-term stability of North America’s beef supply.” “USDA reports that the U.S. beef cow herd has fallen to its smallest level in over 70 years.” “Ranchers tell us the same thing across the country. They cannot justify rebuilding their herds because the market does not reward U.S. origin.” “Tyson just closed a beef plant in Lexington, Nebraska, and is scaling back a plant in Amarillo, Texas.” “These moves impact 4,900 jobs.” “At the same time, beef imports are rising to record levels, over 4.5 million pounds last year.” “That combination—a shrinking domestic herd and rising imports—is a dangerous trajectory for America’s food security and rural economy.” “Reinstating MCOOL would give ranchers the most important thing they lack today: a reliable and forceful market signal that U.S.-raised beef will be recognized and rewarded.” “Reinstating MCOOL would allow consumers to choose U.S.-raised beef and ensure that choice benefits U.S. ranchers, give producers the confidence to reinvest in multi-year herd expansion, strengthen rural economies by keeping food dollars local, and build a more resilient domestic supply.” “The United States cannot afford a cattle industry at its smallest level in 70 years.” “MCOOL is essential for rebuilding the herd, restoring fairness, and protecting our food security.”

USDA Allows 'Product of USA' Labels On Grass Fed Beef That Never Lived On American Soil. Almost 90% Of American Market Grass Fed Beef Is Imported From 20+ Foreign Countries. Once The Foreign Meat Enters The US, Repackaging It Makes It 'Legal' To Qualify As A 'Product Of USA.' The elimination of country of origin labeling for meat caused American producers’ share of the grass fed cattle market to decline from 60% to less than 15% in just a few years. In 2015, the Obama administration’s USDA rolled back Country of Origin Labeling (COOL) for beef & pork products, allowing meat to be sold without disclosing what country it came from, on the label. Under current rules, beef & pork products that are shipped to the United States can be labeled “product of U.S.A.,” even when the animal was raised on another continent. A steer that is born, raised & processed in Uruguay can be cut into steaks or ground up & repackaged at a meatpacking plant in Colorado & is labeled as American meat—even when it isn’t. "The very idea of labeling beef in a grocery store ‘product of U.S.A.,’ when the animal never drew a breath of air on this continent, is just horrible,” says Will Harris, owner of White Oak Pastures, which produces its branded line of grass-fed beef in Bluffton, Georgia." "I don’t begrudge importers or producers from other countries selling to knowing consumers that want to buy that imported product. But I’m appalled at what the deception has done to the economies of our ranchers." Imported grass fed beef brands are taking advantage of a legal ambiguity—& some are downright deceptive. 3 powerful meatpackers...JBS, Tyson & Cargill, are deceptively using the law that allows use of the “Product of USA” label even when the beef & pork was born, raised & processed in a foreign country. Once the meat enters the U.S. it undergoes repackaging or what the USDA refers to as 'value added.' 'Value Added' is a loophole term that if the foreign beef & pork has been sliced, cut, ground or repackaged on American soil, then it is legally labeled as 'product of the USA.' Now, more than ever, it is crucial for our health & in support of American farmers & ranchers...to buy local, to purchase from small reputable butcher shops & to order from online grass fed beef shipping ranchers. 👇USDA Food Labeling Policy Book👇 👇Foreign Meat Contamination Found In US👇 👇Imported Beef Found To Be Contaminated👇 Speakers: Will & Jenni Harris of White Oak Pastures Video: Investearnsave Podcast: Joe Rogan

American Ranchers Are Desperately Trying To Educate The American People That They Are Being Replaced By Foreign Imports Thanks To Lobbyists Selling Them Out Legally a “Product of the USA can now be imported from overseas — The US cattle industry is at an all time low” “There's some interesting and concerning stuff happening in the US cattle industry. Did you know meat is being imported into the US from overseas and being marketed as a product of the USA? The US cattle industry is at an all time low. It's a result of things like extreme drought, beef cost rising, and inflation. Cattle prices are at an all time high, which drives the price of beef. But this isn't necessarily a good thing for ranchers. This just means the 4 large corporations who control 85 percent of the US beef market, 2 of them Brazilian owned, will import meat from other countries where they can source it cheaper. And because of our own laws, if it is repackaged in any way, it can be labeled product of the USA. This is especially unsettling for ground beef that can come from multiple countries, from different ages, and different breeds of older cows that any sort of untraceable diet. That shrimp can be frozen for who knows how long and imported in droves, then thawed and mixed in a large vat in a large processing plant with literally hundreds of different DNA samples landing in 1 pound of ground beef. Importing and exporting is not the problem. Americans like their hamburger, but not their heart. Traditional export markets are good for ranchers to get a premium for the unusual cuts that are more widely desired in foreign markets. But the American consumer deserves to know where their meat comes from and how it was raised. And there is an answer. Buy directly from a rancher in the USA. Find a ranch you can buy direct from locally or one who ships to your doorstep and start ordering now and trusting the source of the food you feed your family.”

7 confirmed cases of screwworm. Yesterday it was 5. The day before, 3. Two states. All originating from cartel-controlled ranches south of the border. has been tracking cartel cattle corridors for over a year. Now screwworm is in Texas. The parasite moved through the same routes the cattle did. InSight Crime confirmed it: outbreak hotspots mirror the smuggling routes. 800,000 head a year smuggled through Mexico with falsified paperwork, no quarantine, no traceability. CJNG doesn't just extort ranchers — they charge 5 pesos per kilo on export animals. They access live herd data through RFID tags. They run regional managers embedded in Mexico's legal export system. Cattle bought for $650 in Central America, resold for $1,500 in Texas. A $1.2 billion shadow market. The parasite isn't the only thing hiding in plain sight. The "Product of USA" rule changed in January. Packers can now only use that label if the animal was born, raised, harvested, AND processed in the US. The old loophole where imported beef got stamped "Product of USA" just for being processed here? Gone. But it's still voluntary. Packers don't have to tell you anything. They can just leave the label off. Imported beef from cartel corridors can sit in your grocery store with zero origin disclosure. MCOOL — mandatory country of origin labeling — would fix that. Every cut, labeled. Born where. Raised where. Slaughtered where. No exceptions. H.R. 5818 is sitting in Congress right now. The screwworm made this urgent. The cartel corridors made it obvious.

I’ve Been Blowing The Whistle On This For Months, The Electronic Ear Tag For Cattle Bill VERY IMPORTANT 🚨 Not only do American farmers say this could put ALL small family farms out of business but Rep Thomas Massie says this is the first step to BANNING cattle - “The key that opens the door to end to the end of independent producers across the country” - The mandatory electronic identification ear tag bill would allow government & environmental groups who attribute livestock to climate change to receive information on small farms cattle - Smaller operations will struggle to shoulder the cost and infrastructure to maintain these systems - Said by farmers I’ve shared “A Trojan horse to get in and control the small farmer. It’s meant to come in, put the small farmer out of business - The rule would increase marketing costs because whenever an animal is sold, it would have to be traced and recorded “Well, you know, the left wants to ban cattle. And before you can ban anything, you need a registry. You need to know where it's at and who owns it, and that's why they want to tag cattle. We've seen it happen in Europe. Now on the right, you've got some cronies who stand to make some money from these ear tags. They're the ones who get the $15,000,000, uh, earmark. It doesn't go to USDA. It's going to, quote, stakeholders. That is a code word for private entities are getting a handout. And, um, what they'll do, they'll verticalize the industry with this. The big corporations, you know, you just talked about China. There are 4 corporations control meat processing in United States. One's owned by China. One's owned Brazil by Brazil. American ranchers will be working for those organizations if this tracking goes through because they'll verticalize the industry. —What's your response to this tracking of cattle? Are you concerned as well? Oh, yes. I am. It is, the key that opens the door to end to the end of independent producers across the country, and it is a pro a private property rights issue that, uh, we really have to consider here. When we start talking about RFID, EID, and data monitor monitoring of farmers and ranchers and their cattle herd size, we open up to what the door to what is going on in the European Union. And, under the rules of sustainable development, we know that the RFID, has led to a land seizure in the name of climate change. So once we open that door, there's no going back. And, uh, they can come and they can monitor, measure, report, and verify everything that's going on your on your farm or ranch. And then it's maybe down the road in the name of climate change, they can come and, uh, uh, dictate to you the rules of their production, which are subjective on a from a third party verification, and it is extremely dangerous to private property rights. This is a liberty taker, not a liberty maker.” Congressman Thomas Massie posted on “Hidden in this week’s Omnibus: Lobbyists got $15 million dollars to implement ELECTRONIC TAGGING of all cattle in the US. No law authorizes this! It will be used by the GREEN agenda to limit beef production, and by the corporate meat oligopoly to DOMINATE small ranchers. Massie, who sponsored the PRIME Act (which would allow meat from custom exempt slaughter plants to be marketed in some instances) shared the language, apparently directly from the omnibus bill: “The agreement directs the Department to continue to provide the tags and related infrastructure needed to comply with the Federal Animal Disease Traceability rule (9 CFR 86), including no less than $15,000,000 for electronic identification (EID) tags and related infrastructure needed for stakeholders to comply with the proposed rule. “Use of Electronic identification Eartags as Official Identification in Cattle and Bison.” (88 FR 3320), should that rule be finalized.
