The Federal Trade Commission has proposed a Made in the USA Labeling Rule that’s designed to strengthen the FTC’s enforcement program and make it easier for businesses to comply with the law.
The FTC is accepting public comment on the Proposed Rule until August 21.
If enacted, marketers would be prohibited from including unqualified Made in USA claims on labels unless:
• Final assembly or processing of the product occurs in the US;
• All significant processing that goes into the product occurs in the US; and
• All or virtually all ingredients or components of the product are made and sourced in the US.
According to Owen Caine, VP-government relations & public policy, the Household & Commercial Products Association (HPCA) is encouraged that the FTC is considering changes to the way it explains and enforces the regulations governing Made in USA.
