Arizonans May Stop Veal & Hog Production In The State
Backed by the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), the Arizonans for Humane Farms have collected the
signatures of 218,273 registered voters and submitted the names to the Secretary of State’s office. The activists are
pushing for a ballot initiative that will allow Arizona voters to vote on the continued use of veal and hog gestation
crates. The two animal activists groups were reported to have had more than 1,200 volunteers working on their behalf.
If voters approve the November ballot measure, Arizona will be the first state to ban veal crates and the second to
prohibit gestation crates – following Florida, which passed a similar voter initiative in 2002.
