The omnibus agriculture policy bill passed in the Minnesota Senate and will now go to the House for consideration. During the debate, three attempts were made to label lab-grown meat products. Senator Rich Draheim, who is a Republican from south-central Minnesota, came up with a compromise. “It simply states that we’re asking the (Agriculture) Commissioner to come up with some options and next year come back with a list of options that we can vote on.” That amendment passed on a bipartisan basis. The overall ag policy bill passed in the Senate with 58 yes votes and nine no votes.
