Bill > HR3542

This bill aims to prohibit certain types of human-animal chimeras, which are defined as embryos, organisms, or other entities that contain a mix of human and non-human cells or genetic material. The key provisions of the bill include: 1) Banning the creation or transfer of prohibited human-animal chimeras, which include human embryos with non-human cells, hybrids produced by fertilizing human and non-human gametes, and non-human organisms engineered to contain human brain tissue or resemble human features. 2) Establishing criminal penalties of up to 10 years in prison and civil fines up to $1 million for violations. 3) Clarifying that the bill does not prohibit research involving transgenic animal models or transplantation of human cells/tissues into animals, as long as those activities do not create the prohibited chimeras.
