BILLS
Continued from Page 6
shouldn't he in the business of
trying to control that kind of
thing.''
|im Black, from the Oregon
Dept of Agriculture, testified
that there are laws to prevent
“false'' or “misleading" labels,
but said the real problem is in
defining what constitutes a
misleading label.
Regarding the produce label
ing bill. Stubenvoll said his
concern is that fruits and vege
tables grown outside the U.S.
could be harmful for consumers
because they do not meet the
pesticide regulations of those
grown in the country.
“What are American con
sumers to do? These chemicals
find their way onto our dinner
tables." Stubenvoll said. He
said a U.S. Department of Agri
culture report concluded that
produce grown in other coun
tries is twice as likely to con
tain pesticides.
Although Stubenvoll ex
plained that “this legislation
does not ban anything." jack
Monroe from the Association of
Oregon Food Industries testi
fied that a passage of the bill
would create "an organization
al nightmare" for the food In
dustry
lit’ said labeling would De an
important response toward con
sumer safety, but worries it
would be too difficult for gro
cers to figure out where the
food came from.
Sen Peg )olin introduced the
idea of putting general labels
on produce that would just
identify that they were grown
in another country
Terry Witt, exei utive director
of Oregonians for Food and
Shelter, refuted Stubenvoll's
comments, saying that it did
not give an act urate picture of
foreign pesticide regulation
and registration, which, he
said, is often more elaborate
.ind "sophisticated" than the
process used here in the U.S.
Witt also said that even if
consumers were aware of
which country the produce
came from, that would not
guarantee that they would un
derstand which country gener
ated the most potentially harm
ful. pesticide-laden produce.
both Sen |im bunn and jolin
asked Witt why he would op
pose a labeling requirement
which would give consumers
the chance to decide if they
wanted to buy foreign produce
even if they were not in
formed about which countries
used harmful pesticides.
"We are not necessarily over
whelmingly opposed to the la
fading of a country of origin."
he said, but added that it
would put an unnecessary cost
burden on the consumer who
would pay the extra money to
organize the labeling process.
