House passes 'E-labeling' bill

The House passed legislation to promote electronic labeling on devices. Passed 402-0, the measure would direct the Federal Communications Commission to establish regulations to allow manufacturers of radiofrequency devices to use electronic labeling, also known as "e-labeling," instead of physical labels to show that devices are approved for commercial use. Rep. Bob Latta (R-OH), the measure's sponsor, said e-labeling would be a more efficient practice.
