S. 741, the Minor Use/Minor Species Act (MUMS). This
bill is controversial and full of loopholes. If passed,
MUMS would abbreviate the Food and Drug Administration’s
(FDA) review procedures of genetically-engineered animals,
including fast-growing salmon, and it probably would
worsen the human health crisis of antibiotic resistance
by allowing the wider use of antibiotics in agriculture
and aquaculture. Center for Science in the Public Interest
