The House Appropriations Subcommittee has completed its fiscal 2011 budget and has cut all funding for the voluntary National Animal Identification System. The subcommittee is charged with budgeting for USDA and the Food and Drug Administration programs.

NAIS faced tremendous obstacles lately as USDA abruptly changed course earlier this year by handing NAIS responsibilities to individual states and tribal nations, who are already overly strapped for money. In some circles this step was the first sign that the program ultimately would fail. An organized and vocal opposition has worked hard to see that NAIS would not come to fruition.
