Colorado to Get Rid of Veal Crates and Gestation Crates

Some great news to end the day, and this more than makes up for the foie gras setback in Chicago. Colorado’s Governor just signed a bill that will outlaw veal crates in four years and pig gestation crates in ten. Additionally, negotiations are currently being set up regarding making progress against battery cages. Congrats to the Humane Society of the United States, and thanks to Governor Bill Ritter for making this happen in a key agriculture state! Link.
