STOP Screwworms Act

This bill directs the USDA to build modular facilities for rearing sterile New World screwworm flies within 180 days of enactment. It requires these facilities to disperse sterile flies into areas at risk of infestation due to migratory patterns, primarily protecting livestock producers in vulnerable agricultural regions. The bill authorizes $300 million for construction and operation, with annual reports to Congress on threat assessments and program effectiveness. The law targets a specific pest threat to U.S. agriculture, focusing on proactive prevention rather than reactive measures.
