Wisconsin Senator remains hopeful for one of three food labeling bills

The author of Wisconsin’s three food labeling bills says one of them definitely will not pass the State Senate. 

State Senator Howard Marklein is the Vice-Chair of the Agriculture Committee and co-chairs the Joint Committee on Finance.  He tells Brownfield the labeling bills for milk, dairy products and meat have mixed support. “There’s one that has a reasonably good chance of survival, and that’s the milk labeling bill, and then the dairy products one, I guess I consider that to be kind of a 50-50 proposition at this standpoint.”

Marklein says the meat labeling bill has no chance of passing this session.
