Senate Bill No. 152, proposed by Senator Fesi, aims to regulate cell cultured food products in Louisiana by enacting Part IV of Chapter 30 of Title 3 of the Louisiana Revised Statutes. The bill explicitly prohibits any person from advertising, manufacturing, distributing, selling, or offering for sale cell cultured food products for human consumption within the state. A "cell cultured food product" is defined as any cultured animal tissue produced from in vitro animal cell cultures outside of the organism from which it is derived.

The bill establishes penalties for violations, with offenders subject to a civil penalty of up to $500 for each violation, and each day a violation occurs is considered a separate offense. Enforcement of these penalties will be managed by the commissioner of the Department of Agriculture and Forestry, who can assess costs related to adjudicatory hearings and may initiate civil proceedings for enforcement or injunctive relief in the appropriate district court. Additionally, the commissioner is authorized to adopt necessary rules and regulations to implement the provisions of the bill, which will take effect on August 1, 2026.
