南达科他州参议员迈克·罗恩兹呼吁暂停美国农业部的电子识别标签 (EID) 授权, South Dakota Senator Mike Rounds is calling for a suspension of the USDA's Electronic Identification (EID) tag mandate, which requires cattle and bison producers to use both visually and electronically readable tags. 制作人担心数据安全和保密, 许多人会因美国农业部没有免费提供标签而面临成本。 Producers are worried about data security and confidentiality, and many face costs as the USDA has not provided the tags for free. 几轮谈判认为,这项任务给已经面对市场不确定性和成本上涨的牧场主带来了不合理的负担。 Rounds argues that this mandate places an unreasonable burden on ranchers already dealing with market uncertainty and rising costs. 怀俄明州参议员林恩·H·施泰因梅茨也反对这一规则,主张自愿识别方法,并出台立法保护国家权利和农业利益。 Wyoming Senator Lynn H. Steinmetz also opposes the rule, advocating for voluntary identification methods and introducing legislation to protect state rights and agricultural interests.
