No PRC Seafood in Congress Act

The No PRC Seafood in Congress Act prohibits the procurement, sale, and service of seafood products from China in all dining facilities located within the U.S. Capitol Buildings or on the Capitol Grounds. This ban applies to any seafood fished, harvested, raised, produced, or processed in China, as well as seafood caught by vessels owned, operated, or registered under Chinese law. To enforce this rule, congressional administrative bodies must issue regulations within 180 days that require food suppliers to certify the specific countries involved in each product's supply chain and maintain records to verify these claims.
