This is a sham bill meant to codify inhumane standards in advance of an upcoming ballot measure to have WA go "cage free." http://www.humanewa.org
The egg producer guidelines mentioned do not even allow a hen to stand
up, turn around or flap her wings. The guidelines only allow for
67-inches of room - that's less than a sheet of paper - for the ENTIRE
LIFE of the hen. Vote NO on Senate Bill 5487 if you care about the humane treatment of animals.
