An Act To Require Food Labels To Disclose Use Of Messenger Ribonucleic Acid Vaccine Material In Food Production
This bill requires food products derived from aquaculture, livestock, or poultry that received mRNA vaccine material to carry a clear label stating "contains mRNA vaccine material." It applies directly to food producers and sellers in Maine offering such products. The label must be conspicuous and prominently displayed, and non-compliant products may be stopped from sale until properly labeled. The law defines "mRNA vaccine material" as substances in vaccines that stimulate antibody production, though the bill does not address whether such materials are actually used in food production.
