How This Impacts Americans

Potential effects on citizens and communities

This bill would impact American consumers who eat imported seafood, as well as the foreign seafood industry and exporting countries.

However, it would also provide greater assurance that all seafood sold in the U.S. meets strict safety requirements, benefiting public health.
