It is common practice on factory farms to cram animals into cages so small the animals can’t even turn around or extend their limbs.
This past week, I campaigned in California for Proposition 2—the November ballot initiative to combat the intensive confinement of certain animals on factory farms. In the middle of the trip was a public forum in San Luis Obispo before several members of the Senate and Assembly Agriculture Committees, led by Senator Abel Maldonado and including Prop 2 supporter Senator Dean Florez.
