Nebraska has passed a bill banning the production and sale of lab-grown meat in the state.
Governor Jim Pillen says the move will support traditional livestock producers and keep lab-grown products off Nebraska store shelves.
“We’re here celebrating, making sure we don’t have this thing I call bioreactor meat being made in Nebraska. It’s not going to be made in Nebraska. It’s not going to be on Nebraska grocery store shelves. We’re really, really excited to celebrate the legislation being passed. So, we’re out here in God’s country with real people celebrating that.”
Pillen says anything that comes out of a lab is nothing close to agriculture.
