Bill to Ban Force-Feeding Flies Through Committee!
Humane legislation in New York to ban the cruel force-feeding of birds for foie gras passed the Assembly Agriculture Committee by a vote of 16 to 1! While similar legislation has been introduced for a number of years previously, this is the first time the bill has ever moved forward and represents a very positive development. Assembly Bill 6212 will now move to the Assembly floor, and it is critical for New York citizens to contact their Assembly representatives.
