Opinion: Not Investing in Lab-Grown Meat is a Massive Mistake
On May 1st, 2024, infamous Governor Ron DeSantis signed a contentious bill into law: the banning of lab-grown meat in Florida.

Notably, both states have also shared an undertone of anti-authoritarianism in their reasoning, stating concern over the federal government having jurisdiction over what is and isn’t allowed in stores. Though these states are the first to take action, there are several other measures across the United States close to passing similar bills, namely in Arizona and Tennessee.
