“On agreeing to the Greene (GA) amendment (A015) Failed by recorded vote: 194 - 236, 1 Present (Roll no. 254).”
This amendment would have banned the Department of Defense from researching, buying, or promoting lab-grown (cell-cultured) meat. Because the House of Representatives voted against it, the ban was not added to the defense bill.
The amendment highlights a debate over food technology in the military, specifically whether the government should invest in lab-grown meat versus supporting traditional livestock farming.
This primarily affects Department of Defense researchers and food-technology companies that might have sought military contracts for meat alternatives.
