According to the American Meat Institute, this latest move falls in accordance with an Executive Order issued by White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel immediately following the president's inauguration.
That order directed agencies to review rules not yet implemented, to consider extending the implementation date by 60 days, and if the implementation date is extended, to allow for 30 days of additional public comment.
