The Ending Agricultural Trade Suppression (EATS) Act is a piece of legislation designed to prevent states and local jurisdictions from regulating the production and distribution of agricultural products within their borders that are subject to interstate commerce. It was modeled after the notorious “King amendment” which former Rep. Steve King (R-IA) tried unsuccessfully to include in the 2014 and 2018 Farm Bills to block states from passing laws related to the sale of products within their own borders.
