    In Executive Order 14216, the President addresses the issue of infertility, which affects many couples in the United States. The order emphasizes the importance of providing affordable and accessible in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments to help families overcome fertility challenges. It directs the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy to recommend strategies for reducing the costs associated with IVF and ensuring easier access. The order aims to support family formation while acknowledging legal and budgetary limitations.

    The USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service has amended the Mango Promotion, Research, and Information Order to remove frozen mangos as a covered commodity, following a referendum where the majority of first handlers and importers voted against their inclusion. This change discontinues the collection of assessments for frozen mangos and reduces the National Mango Board's membership from 21 to 18 members. These changes are intended to relieve regulatory burdens on frozen mango importers and streamline the Order's provisions, including clarifying definitions and updating voting procedures. The rule became effective on February 25, 2021, and stakeholders are invited to submit comments by April 26, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The government decided that frozen mangos don't need to pay for promotions anymore, so people selling frozen mangos won't have to be part of a special mango group, making things simpler for them.
