What it does

This bill directs the Department of Agriculture to submit a report to Congress on the New World Screwworm (NWS) domestic readiness and response initiative of the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.

NWS is a species of parasitic fly. The flies lay eggs in open wounds and body openings of warm-blooded animals (e.g., livestock, pets, and wildlife) and people. The eggs hatch into parasitic maggots that burrow into and feed on living tissue or flesh.
