Topic: Nebraska Beef, pork, chicken and turkey processing.  

Currently major foreign processing companies are doing this work in Nebraska.  These plants were bound by USDA food inspections to ensure the safety and quality of our food.  

The current administration cut  roughly 100 million dollars from the US Dept. of Agriculture budget.  Why is this a concern for Nebraska? With that cut, there is a trickle down effect to us. Those big foreign packers in Nebraska are working to cut out our USDA food inspectors and conduct "self inspections".

This is bad.

If tainted products enter national and international trade, the finger will be pointed at Nebraska products for sickening or killing everyone with our food products.  Remember that currently the big packers bring in animals from everywhere and slaughter them all together in Nebraska along with Nebraskas products. Who knows where diseased animals came from?  

Self inspection from the processing owners reduces accountability for clean pure healthy products.

1. The product without USDA standard back up quality inspections, increase the risk of Ecoli, Lysteria, Salmonella and other food borne pathogens which can kill us.

2. Tainted, deadly products would shut down trade for Nebraska threatening our economy.

Although Nebraska is a big ag state, we are much more too and need to protect all residents living and working in the State to keep us operational. Basic continuity of operations for a state relies on every worker. We have to protect our food, our children and one another.

This is happening right now but is among the information  that does not make the news because people are serving money over humanity.

You have to ask yourself, who else in the State would profit from this?

Question and research everything.
