Chandler Goule on Country of Origin Labeling

Chandler Goule began his career with NFU in November 2009 as the vice president of government relations. The World Trade Organization (WTO) has delivered a major setback to American consumers and producers earlier this year when it ruled against the U.S. Country-of-Origin Labeling (COOL) law, which requires muscle cuts of meat, and some fruits and vegetables, to be labeled with the country 19s name where it was produced. The good news is that the U.S. can both maintain the integrity of this label and at the same time comply with our WTO obligations with one quick fix. That fix 13 voluntary COOL - has already been introduced in the U.S. Senate.
