Plain-English Summary

The bill would strengthen efforts to prevent and control screwworm infestations, which are parasitic fly larvae that damage livestock and wildlife. It would likely authorize funding and resources for monitoring, research, and eradication programs to protect farmers' animals and prevent the spread of this costly agricultural pest. Livestock producers, ranchers, and agricultural agencies would benefit from these enhanced disease prevention measures.
