“This ban is a massive win for Texas ranchers, producers, and consumers,” Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller said in a statement following the bill’s passage. “Texans have a God-given right to know what’s on their plate, and for millions of Texans, it better come from a pasture, not a lab. It’s plain cowboy logic that we must safeguard our real, authentic meat industry from synthetic alternatives.”

Texas joins Indiana, Mississippi, Montana and Nebraska in enacting new laws this year; Alabama and Florida did so last year. In March, the Oklahoma House approved a similar bill that did not advance out of the Senate this session.

        Yeah sorry, I’m not interested in allies who are more worried about appearing “cringe” than stopping literal fascists. Wake the fuck up.

          You’re not seeing the bigger picture, a lot of politics is “vibe based” nowadays, they think you’re cringe, they won’t listen.
