I know some clothing company in Utah just got fined and shit for replacing the Made in China Labels with Made in America.
The rule is confusing though. HLG is made in USA. But we know they get the diodes and shit overseas. But build them here. So I'm assuming at least half the parts have to be from the USA and half of the manufacturing. I don't know. HLG is honest whatever the rules are. I bought a couple of the UV bars and those are made in China, and say it clearly.
I'm curious about stupid shit like this.
Edit: Oh, this part about sums it up kinda.
As described in Section I above, the NPRM proposed to codify the Commission's longstanding interpretation of Section 5's requirements governing substantiation of unqualified MUSA claims. This interpretation was first articulated in Commission cases dating back to the 1940s [
33] and was formalized in the 1997 Policy Statement. Specifically, the NPRM proposed to prohibit unqualified MUSA claims on labels unless: (1) Final assembly or processing of the product occurs in the United States, (2) all significant processing that goes into the product occurs in the United States, and (3) all or virtually all ingredients or components of the product are made and sourced in the United States.
