By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Section 1.  Policy.  Ranchers play a vital role in our Nation\u2019s food supply chain and cultural heritage.  These hardworking Americans ensure that our country has a reliable domestic source of high-quality animal protein products, and a secure, plentiful domestic ranching industry vindicates this country\u2019s food security.  But the national herd is at a 75-year low, while consumer demand for beef has grown almost 10 percent over the past decade.  My Administration has already acted to support ranchers by, for example:  enforcing voluntary \u201cProduct of USA\u201d labeling to give American ranchers the recognition they deserve for producing in the United States; mapping over 2 million additional acres of grazing land managed by the Department of the Interior and identifying nearly 1.6 million acres of vacant allotments managed by the United States Forest Service and opening them for Federal grazing permit applications across the West; withdrawing burdensome Biden-era regulations that imposed substantial compliance costs in the name of speculative environmental benefits; and implementing a number of financially beneficial tax law changes for ranchers, such as lowering Death Taxes and promoting more rapid expensing and depreciation policies.  More can and should be done to support this critical industry, and my Administration will continue to act to protect our domestic producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sec. 2.  Comprehensive Policy and Regulatory Review.  Within 90 days of the date of this order, the Secretary of Agriculture, the Secretary of the Interior, the United States Trade Representative, the Commissioner of Food and Drugs, and the Administrator of the Small Business Administration shall submit to the President a report that assesses all executive department and agency (agency) regulations, guidance, and other agency policies affecting ranchers and that provides recommendations for action to promote financial viability and enhanced market access for American ranchers consistent with this order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sec. 3.  Helping Ranchers Combat Predation.  Within 90 days of the date of this order:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(a)  The Secretary of the Interior shall make a determination as to whether the gray wolf and the Mexican wolf have met the recovery criteria for delisting or downlisting under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and, if he determines that the recovery criteria has been met, shall begin the process of delisting or downlisting them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(b)  The Secretary of the Interior, in coordination with the Assistant to the President and Director of Legislative Affairs, shall prepare and submit to the President a legislative recommendation to fully delist or downlist the gray wolf and the Mexican wolf under the ESA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(c)  Upon a determination by the Secretary of the Interior that the ESA recovery criteria has been met with respect to the gray wolf and the Mexican wolf, the Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of Intergovernmental Affairs, in coordination with the Secretary of Agriculture, shall engage with States to encourage them to delist gray wolves and Mexican wolves from any State-specific lists of protected species and to revise their standards for lethal takings of gray wolves and Mexican wolves to assist ranchers in combating predation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(d)  The Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Agriculture shall consider developing or amending their respective Departments\u2019 producer compensation regulations, evidentiary standards, and program handbooks, consistent with applicable law, to ensure that all depredation claims adjudicated by their respective Departments are consistently, accurately, and expeditiously assessed, including by setting adequate standards to investigate depredations by gray wolves and Mexican wolves and by considering additional factors beyond subcutaneous hemorrhaging when appropriate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(e)  The Secretary of the Interior shall consider amending regulations or providing additional guidance, consistent with applicable law, to revise the Department\u2019s criteria for authorizing lethal gray wolf and Mexican wolf removal and to enable greater emergency responsiveness, including precision targeting, for situations involving predator threats to human safety or threats to domestic livestock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sec. 4.  Country-of-Origin Labeling.  Within 90 days of the date of this order, the Secretary of Agriculture, in consultation with the United States Trade Representative, shall review all statutory and regulatory authorities that may permit the establishment of mandatory country-of-origin labeling for beef products and shall provide the Assistant to the President for Economic Policy with a summary of such authorities as well as an economic analysis of the impacts of mandatory country-of-origin labeling that reflects current conditions and modernized practices.  Based on these assessments, the Secretary of Agriculture, in consultation with the United States Trade Representative and the Assistant to the President for Economic Policy, may issue or amend regulations, to the extent permitted under applicable law, to require mandatory country-of-origin labeling for beef products, or may, in further coordination with the White House Office of Legislative Affairs, develop legislative recommendations regarding such labeling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sec. 5.  Supporting American Consumers.  To the extent consistent with applicable law, the head of each agency shall take such steps as may be appropriate to ensure that the measures directed in this order, as well as other measures taken by my Administration with respect to food production and supply, benefit American consumers in the form of lower prices to the maximum extent possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sec. 6.  General Provisions.  (a)  Nothing in this order shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(i)   the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or the head thereof; or<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(ii)  the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(b)  This order shall be implemented consistent with applicable law and subject to the availability of appropriations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(c)  This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(d)  The costs for publication of this order shall be borne by the Department of Agriculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
