The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association says the proposed special investigator bill, that was marked up by the House Ag Committee on Wednesday, is a waste of resources.
NCBA’s Tanner Beymer tells Brownfield the new position authorized under the Meat and Poultry Special Investigator Act would create a bureaucratic mess. “They’re creating a new office in addition to one that already exists to enforce the very act this new office would make them enforce,” he says.
