Texas HB 2213 – Relating to the slaughter and processing of exotic animals for donation to a nonprofit food bank Texas Representative John Frullo (R-District 84) introduced legislation (H.B. No. 2213) to allow for the donation of exotic animals to nonprofit food banks.

HSC provided testimony in favor of the bill before the House Public Health Committee on 03/24/21. The bill was approved in the House and has been received
