HB 2441 Pennsylvania House · 2023-2024 Regular Session

An Act amending Title 3 (Agriculture) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in food protection, further providing for definitions and for prohibited acts.

This bill amends Pennsylvania's food protection laws to define "cell-cultured meat" and "cell-cultured poultry" as products grown from animal cells outside of live animals. It directly affects the food industry by explicitly prohibiting the manufacturing, selling, or offering for sale of these specific products. The law takes effect 60 days after passage and aims to establish clear regulatory boundaries for emerging food technologies within the state.
