## Summary

**Creates a federal right for producers of covered livestock to raise and market animals and milk-derived products across state lines without state production-related conditions.** The bill would bar states and localities from enforcing production rules on animals or products that were not physically raised within their borders. - Producers: Livestock and milk producers would have a federal right to sell in interstate commerce without being subject to differing state or local production conditions on out-of-state animals or products. Animals raised primarily for egg production are excluded. - State and local regulators: States and subdivisions could not enact or enforce production-related conditions on animals or products not physically raised in their jurisdiction. States could not add different production standards as a condition for sale or consumption. - Market and trade: The bill aims to support a national market for covered livestock and to help uphold U.S. international trade obligations. - Definitions and scope: "Covered livestock" means domestic animals raised for slaughter or to produce milk-derived products. "Production" means raising and breeding and does not include movement, harvesting, or further processing.
