§5701. Findings
Congress finds that—
(1) the United States public is entitled to receive food and other consumer products that are not made unsafe because of certain transportation practices;
(2) the United States public is threatened by the transportation of products potentially harmful to consumers in motor vehicles and rail vehicles that are used to transport food and other consumer products; and
(3) the risks to consumers by those transportation practices are unnecessary and those practices must be ended.
