Two more states have bills addressing cell-cultured meat regulations

“We absolutely expect to see more of these proposals similar to this or other types of action on this topic in this session and upcoming ones as well.”

There has been new movement when it comes to cell-cultured meat regulations. Legislation in Nebraska is aiming to ban the production and sale of lab-grown meat, and in South Dakota, a bill has advanced that would increase labeling requirements.

Beth Rumley with the National Agricultural Law Center spoke with RFD-TV’s own Suzanne Alexander on a timeline to see these laws enacted, next steps for Nebraska and South Dakota, and actions on the federal level.
