- On May 7, 2026, Oklahoma’s governor signed SB2028. The new law raises the monthly cap on direct raw milk sales from 100 gallons to 1,500 gallons and allows farmers and producers to advertise their ungraded raw milk and raw milk products.
- Consumer sales of raw milk and raw milk products are only permitted on the farm where the raw milk or raw milk products are produced. In addition, raw milk producers must inform consumers that the product is not licensed, regulated, or inspected and must label the product to indicate that it is raw or unpasteurized milk and include the date the milk was filled.
- The passage of SB2028 reflects the broader trend of several states introducing or passing legislation related to raw milk despite the fact that raw milk can carry harmful bacteria such as Salmonella, E.coli, and Listeria monocytogenes. Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has been a champion for raw milk, and his support has brought renewed attention to the raw milk movement.
- Keller and Heckman will continue to monitor any developments related to the regulation of raw milk.
