Key points
State-inspected meat will be allowed for sale in other states, opening new markets for producers.
State and local governments cannot prohibit or restrict the sale of meat that has passed federal interstate inspection.
The act aims to support small and medium-sized meat processors by giving them opportunities to grow and reach more customers.
