Lowering Egg Prices Act of 2025

HR 2222, the "Lowering Egg Prices Act of 2025," modifies federal egg regulations to allow surplus broiler hatching eggs (used to hatch chicks for meat production) to be sold to egg breakers (facilities that process whole eggs into liquid products). The bill directs the FDA and USDA to create new rules within 180 days permitting these eggs to be stored under conditions compatible with hatching while also being sold for processing into liquid egg products. This change aims to increase the supply of eggs available for processing by making it easier to redirect surplus hatching eggs to egg breakers. The bill directly affects broiler hatcheries, egg breakers, and the broader egg processing industry by altering how certain surplus eggs can be handled and sold.
