Creates new programs and grants to boost US jobs and research in alternative protein foods.
This bill would set up new government programs and grant money to support research and create jobs in making alternative protein foods. It aims to make the U.S. a leader in new food technologies, helping businesses, workers, and students in this growing field. The bill would authorize setting aside $500 million over five years for these efforts.
Today, there are no specific federal programs or grant funds set aside to create research centers or workforce training for alternative protein foods. If this bill passes, the U.S. Department of Agriculture would establish at least three research centers and two new grant programs, authorizing $500 million over five years to boost this industry. It would also create a national strategy to make the U.S. a leader in these new food technologies.
