Ban on Federal Funding for New Raw Poultry Salmonella Standards.

This bill prohibits the use of federal funds to implement a proposed new regulatory framework aimed at controlling Salmonella in raw poultry products. If passed, the new food safety standards proposed by the Department of Agriculture, intended to reduce foodborne illnesses, will not be finalized or enforced. Consequently, existing poultry safety standards will remain unchanged, potentially affecting consumer protection levels.
Key points
Funding Prohibition: Federal money cannot be used to implement the proposed Salmonella Framework for Raw Poultry Products published in August 2024.
Food Safety Impact: New, potentially stricter food safety standards for poultry designed to reduce Salmonella risk will not be introduced.
