Republican Indiana Senator Todd Young lauded AquaBounty's land-based facility in Albany, Indiana, which is preparing to raise the United State's first genetically engineered salmon.
Young called the facility a "job creator" and a "wealth creator," following a tour in March, the Star Press reports.
Earlier in March, The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) lifted an import alert on the company's GM salmon eggs, paving the way for AquaBounty to produce and sell its GM salmon in the US market.
