U.S. meat producers are anxious to import meat and pass it off as U.S.-bred by virtue of the brand name, not actual country of origin.

They can do whatever they want, as long as they don't misrepresent anything. If it matters to their customers, then they wouldn't get away with it.

If this was really a major issue, you'd have a niche market in the meat producing industry that openly and proudly sold their product with a huge "Bred and Packed in the USA" label on it. There's no reason for Congress to mandate this crap.
