"This was a very successful convention in every sense," said Leo McDonnell, R-CALF USA President. "We're proud that the first cattle industry convention held in the wake of the bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) incident recommitted itself to our greatest asset -- the consumer. This sends a strong message to consumers that we value their continued confidence and we intend to work even harder to preserve their trust."

The first resolution passed on the floor of the convention where voting members must own cattle stated, "Members of R-CALF USA reaffirm consumer safety and confidence in beef is our highest priority." It also reaffirmed the cattle industry's support for mandatory country of origin labeling to provide important information to consumers.
