Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen signed an executive order prohibiting state agencies from purchasing lab-grown meat, aiming to protect the state's livestock industry and prevent confusion over meat labeling. Pillen supports natural meat and acknowledges consumers' right to choose lab-grown alternatives elsewhere, but seeks to ensure clear labeling distinctions in Nebraska.
