New Markets for State-Inspected Meat and Poultry Act of 2023

This bill allows meat and poultry products inspected under state programs to be sold across state lines, removing a long-standing restriction that limited such sales to within a single state. It requires the federal government to permit interstate shipment of these state-inspected products and mandates that states cannot ban or restrict their sale or movement. Small meat and poultry processors in states with their own inspection programs - rather than federal inspection - would directly benefit by expanding their market reach beyond state borders. The law makes no changes to inspection standards but enables broader commerce for products already meeting federal safety requirements.
