The bill, a.k.a. the PRIMATE Act, prohibits importing nonhuman primates into the United States, with exceptions for Zoos and Aquariums Association (AZA)-accredited facilities. It defines related terms, enforces penalties, and instructs the Secretary of the Treasury to issue regulations within a year. Violators may face civil penalties up to $50,000 and forfeiture of the primate. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection is tasked with enforcing the prohibition. The bill aims to prevent risky importation of monkeys to avoid toxic exposures and protect nonhuman primates from misuse in experiments or testing.
