Justice Attributed to Wounded Sharks Act or the JAWS Act
This bill prohibits the importation into the United States of seafood products from a country that does not prohibit: (1) shark finning in its territorial waters; and (2) the importation, sale, or possession of shark fins obtained through shark finning.
The bill defines "shark finning" to mean the removal of a shark's fin (whether or not including the tail) and returning the remainder of the shark to the sea.
