What it does
This bill changes fish labeling rules. Fish sold in stores must show the country it came from. The label must say if the fish was farm-raised or caught wild. The label must be easy to read on the front of the package. Stores have one year after the law passes to follow the new rules.
Who it affects
People who buy fish will see clearer labels. Fish sellers and stores will need to change their labels, which costs money.
One thing to notice
The bill puts both pieces of information on one label on the front.
