What else is Bumble Bee skipping in their processes?”
Isn’t this the company that Pelosi’s husband has interest in or maybe even owns? I remember some tuna company got a break involving employees some time ago. Can’t remember any of the details but I do remember Pelosi being somehow involved.
StarKist Tuna. The owner is Del Monte, based in Pelosi's district. Pelosi's husband owns millions in stock in StarKist.
Bumble Bee and Chicken of the Sea are using facilities in Thailand to clean and can their tuna. This was violating the origin rules of the Buy America standards. There also were allegations that workers suffered terrible conditions while cleaning tuna. Because they were escaping USDA standards, a ban was placed in schools for their tuna. Millions of dollars in government sales were at stake. Rep. Linda Sánchez (D-Calif.) introduced legislation last year that would loosen the origins rules for tuna. I have no idea if those rules were loosened because that information goes nowhere in my Google search.
