Alabama has joined Florida to become the second state in the United States to ban lab-grown meat.

Alabama’s bill—proposed by Republican Sen. Jack Williams (District 34), vice chair of the Senate Agriculture, Conservation, and Forestry Committee—was signed into law by Gov. Kay Ivy on May 7. The measure becomes effective on Oct. 1.
