Senator calls for tougher standards on Chinese chicken
Senator Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) is calling on the USDA to make it tougher on chickens that are processed in China and will be sold in the United States. The USDA recently approved the sale of chickens raised in the United States but are processed in China for sale back in the U.S.
Schumer said tougher enforcement of health standards are needed to protect consumers, reports the Associated Press.
