...This summer, volunteers collected 800,000 signatures to put Proposition Two on the state’s November ballot. The Proposition mandates that all farm animals be given enough space to lie down, turn around, and fully extend their limbs. If passed, it would end the confinement of veal calves, gestating pigs, and egg-laying hens in restrictive cages across the state–20 million animals in all, the vast majority hens confined to battery cages...
