October 30, 2025 — U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-Mississippi) has introduced a bill that, if passed, would require all seafood sold in the country to have a large label identifying the country of origin and method of production.
The Let Americans Buy with Explicit Labeling (LABEL) Act would require country of origin and production information to be printed on seafood packaging and displayed “in a font size at least as large as the product name.” According to Hyde-Smith, some of the information printed on imported seafood products are too small, preventing American consumers from differentiating between domestic and foreign seafood.
