Plain-English Summary
The federal government would establish new programs and funding to prepare for and prevent the spread of New World screwworms, parasitic insects that infect livestock and wildlife and can cause serious disease or death. The bill would support research, surveillance systems, and emergency response plans to detect and control outbreaks before they damage the U.S. agricultural industry and animal populations. Farmers, ranchers, and wildlife managers would benefit from these preparedness efforts to protect their animals and livelihoods.
