The President signed an executive order invoking the Defense Production Act to keep meat processing plants open.

Plants owned by some of the country’s largest food companies have struggled with outbreaks of the coronavirus among workers and a growing death toll.

The executive order also applies to plants that have already closed which will have to re-open.

The executive order declares meat processing plants critical infrastructure to protect against disruptions to the food supply.

The federal government will also provide workers with additional protective gear and guidance.

The order from the president to require meat processing plants to continue operating comes as several of the nation’s largest meat producers have had to close facilities after employees tested positive for COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus.

Tyson Foods closed its meat processing plant in Waterloo, Iowa, while Smithfield Foods closed its plant in South Dakota and JBS USA shut down its meatpacking plant in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

John H. Tyson, chairman of Tyson Foods, warned that the “food supply chain is breaking.”

The order from Mr. Trump is intended to prevent a decision from food companies to temporarily close a majority of their processing plants, which could reduce the country’s meat processing capacity by up to 80%.

The Biblical prophecies (Matthew 24) describe that pestilence and famine together will be signs which indicate the beginning of the end of this age of grace called the “beginning of sorrows.”

These events and conditions happening now are warning signs pointing to the nearing fulfillment of the Last Days prophecies at the end of this age revealing it’s time to prepare now for the nearing appearance of Jesus Christ for His Church by being born again spiritually into the Kingdom of God as Jesus said we must (John 3) and His Apostles who were authorized (Matthew 16:19) described how (Acts 2).
