HD 1371: An Act to Ensure Continued Humane Animal Care and Support Family Farms in Massachusetts (filed in the Senate as SD 466 by Senator Lewis)
This bill prohibits the confinement of farm animals in a manner that does not allow them to turn around freely, lie down, stand up, and fully extend their limbs. Standard veal crates and gestation crates for pregnant pigs would no longer be allowed in the Commonwealth.
