ACT OF 2025
SEPTEMBER 3, 2025.-Committed to the Committee of the Whole House on the State
of the Union and ordered to be printed
Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania, from the Committee on
Agriculture, submitted the following
REPORT
[To accompany H.R. 4550]
The Committee on Agriculture, to whom was referred the bill
(H.R. 4550) to reauthorize the United States Grain Standards Act,
and for other purposes, having considered the same, reports favor-
ably thereon without amendment and recommends that the bill do
pass.
BRIEF EXPLANATION
The United States Grain Standards Act Reauthorization Act of
2025, H.R. 4550, reauthorizes provisions of the United States Grain
Standards Act (USGSA) until September 30, 2030, and provides a
safeguard mechanism in the event of an interruption of official in-
spection services. In addition, H.R. 4550 revises the process for the
delegation and designation of authority by the Secretary to provide
official inspection services and allows for the review of current del-
egations. Finally, the legislation amends the USGSA to provide a
basis for fees based on export tonnage and for the adjustment of
those fees.
PURPOSE AND NEEDS
Witnesses testifying before the subcommittee, as well as producer
organizations submitting statements for the hearing record, af-
firmed that it remains the Federal Grain Inspection Service's
(FGIS) ultimate responsibility to provide accurate, reliable, consist-
ently available, and cost-effective grain inspection and weighing
services. Though proposals varied, each organization underscored
the importance of technology and continuity of service in ensuring
the integrity of the United States grain inspection system. The
