The AP decided to take an extremely pro-factory farm angle on this, but it’s notable that veal and egg producers—not widely known for tender care of their animals—were able to comply with California’s 2018 law while pork producers are at 4% compliance. apnews.com/article/lifest…
The draconian requirement at issue here is giving “breeding pigs enough room to turn around and to extend their limbs.”
This is clearly the disposition of the Associated Press team that produced the story.

Anyways if the pork producers of the Midwest want to lose access to 15% of the market because their obnoxious politics doesn’t allow them them to stop torturing their animals for a concrete economic reason, I guess that’s a choice they can make. But I don’t think it’s too funny.
