Delaying Sheep and Goat Import Rules: Market and Animal Health Study.

This act postpones new rules for importing sheep, goats, and their products.

Citizens can expect stable prices and product availability until all potential consequences are assessed.
Key points
New import rules for sheep and goats are paused for at least one year to prevent unforeseen issues.
A detailed study will assess the impact of imports on the domestic market, prices, animal health, and U.S. producer competitiveness.
A report with recommendations will be prepared to help protect the interests of U.S. consumers and producers.
