Wisconsin U.S. Representative Ron Kind and a group of bipartisan House members last week introduced the Continuous Improvement and Accountability in Organic Standards Act.
The legislation seeks to improve the federal process for the oversight of organic food standards.
Kind is co-chair of the bipartisan House Organic Caucus, stating, “This legislation will take necessary steps to ensure our organic farmers can continue to succeed and innovate for generations to come.”
The Wisconsin Democrat says the bill will establish a new framework for advancing organic standards and improve oversight and enforcement of new rules and guidance.
