Bill Summary
A BILL To establish ‘‘Golden Sea Bream’’ as an acceptable market name for Stenotomus chrysops.
AI Summary
This bill establishes "Golden Sea Bream" as an acceptable market name for Stenotomus chrysops (a type of fish scientifically known as the scup or porgy) under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Specifically, the bill stipulates that foods labeled or marketed using the name "Golden Sea Bream" for this particular fish species will not be considered misbranded, adulterated, or in violation of federal food regulations. This means that seafood sellers and manufacturers can now use this market name without legal risk, potentially helping to make the fish more appealing or recognizable to consumers by providing an alternative, potentially more marketable name to the scientific or less familiar common names.
