Yes. Support as written. HOWEVER, last session Senator Murdock has a bill banning the sale of cultivated meat. He then changed the language to be a bill protecting chemical companies from liability for causing cancers and lymphomas in farmers. WATCH THIS BILL. "A. For the purposes of this section, the term “cultivated meat” means a meat or meat product that was produced from cultured animal tissue produced from in vitro animal cell cultures outside of the animal from which the cells were derived. It shall be unlawful for any person to manufacture, sell, hold or offer for sale, or distribute any cultivated meat product in this state. 2. Any person who violates the provisions of this subsection shall, upon conviction, be guilty of a misdemeanor" Need to amend to also ban sale of cultivated MILK.
