This resolution expresses South Dakota's support for voluntary labeling that identifies the country where food products originate. It does not change any existing state law, but instead encourages the federal government and food producers to adopt country-of-origin labeling as a voluntary practice to help consumers make informed purchasing decisions.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
