It seems illogical that the USDA would be given the exclusive authority to oversee and regulate catfish only while the FDA regulates all other seafood.

Explicitly creating a program exclusively for catfish seems to be unnecessary, and it directs resources away from high-risk foods.

It is unfortunate that we have a Congress of the United States, the majority parties that want to just tear down this law.
