Key Points

Congress would let surplus broiler hatching eggs be exempt from certain shell-egg handling rules when sold to plants that turn eggs into liquid egg products.
The goal is to let more eggs enter the food supply (as liquid egg ingredients for manufacturers), which supporters say could help ease egg supply pressures and prices.
The Health and Human Services Department, through the Food and Drug Commissioner, would have to update the egg rule within 180 days, working with the Agriculture Department.
This change is limited to surplus eggs meant for hatching chicks and only when they are sold for processing, not for selling whole “table eggs” in stores.
