Bill > S1208

This bill mandates that the Department of Public Health establish a food labeling program for saltwater fish that are caught, brought ashore, and sold commercially, such as tuna, mackerel, swordfish, grouper, striped bass, and bluefish. The purpose of these labels is to inform consumers about the safety and potential health risks associated with eating these fish, specifically focusing on toxin levels and their dangers to human health, with a particular emphasis on protecting young children, women of child-bearing age, and pregnant women.
