Our policy team is hard at work preparing a full summary of the various federal and state food and farm bills they've been tracking this year. So much has happened, and many bills are still in motion.

The outcome of these policies will determine how food is produced and who can access it — so stay tuned, and be sure to open any Action Alerts that may come your way!

In the meantime, here's a teaser of what they're working on:

• State: Wyoming

• Bill: Wyoming Senate File 0120

• Status: PASSED (Victory!)

• What it does: Effective July 1st, 2025, the Wyoming PRIME Act authorizes producers of meat products produced from cattle, sheep, swine, and goats raised by the producer and slaughtered on the producer's premises or at a custom slaughter facility (where an inspector is not present) to sell the meat products as long as the products are produced from animals that are raised, slaughtered, processed, and sold directly to an informed consumer in Wyoming. The meat must also include a warning that it has not been inspected, so the meat product cannot be resold, donated, or redistributed.

• Why we like it: Wyoming's PRIME Act protects the producer-consumer relationship from regulatory overreach, opens up a new sales avenue for meat producers, and makes it easier for consumers to purchase food from their neighbors. We’re also watching the progress of a federal PRIME Act that will open up similar sales avenues across the country, so keep an eye on our updates and action alerts to get engaged!
