HUMAN FETAL TISSUE -- Adds to existing law to establish provisions regarding the use of human fetal tissue in products.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
The Human Fetal Tissue Transparency Act protects consumers by ensuring transparency regarding the use of human fetal tissue and biological derivatives in products sold in Idaho. Currently, products containing or developed using human fetal tissue, embryonic cells, or derivative biological matter such as fetal DNA are sold without disclosure, preventing consumers from making fully informed decisions. This bill requires any such products be labeled, including those where testing on the production lot or final product used these materials. By establishing a civil enforcement framework and protecting retailers who act in good faith, this legislation ensures that Idahoans have the transparency they deserve to make purchasing choices that align with their personal, ethical, and moral values.
