This bill would let sellers use the name “Golden Sea Bream” for a fish species called Stenotomus chrysops. In simple terms, it creates an approved market name for this fish so that food sold with that label would not be treated as wrongly labeled under federal food law.
- It applies only to the fish species Stenotomus chrysops.
- Using the name “Golden Sea Bream” for this fish would not count as misbranding, adulteration, or another violation of federal food rules.
- The bill is about labeling and marketing, not about changing the fish itself or how it is caught, sold, or regulated in other ways.
