for Tri-State Livestock News Rep. Sebastian Ertelt of Lisbon introduced a bill in the North Dakota House of Representatives to make the state beef checkoff voluntary. Since the bill was enacted in 2015, which requires all cattle sold in North Dakota or sold by a North Dakotan to pay an extra $1 per head of cattle sold, to the North Dakota Beef Commission, sale barns have been required to withhold these funds from producers’ checks and producers who sell private treaty are required to submit payment to the beef commission. House Bill 1487, introduced this year by Ertelt, would make a simple change to the law. Rather than the law stating that producers “must” remit the state checkoff, the bill amends the law to state that producers “may” remit payment. This effectively changes the mandatory refundable checkoff program into a voluntary checkoff program.
