NCBA will fight the ‘egg bill’ in Congress

Saying it would set “a dangerous precedent”, National Cattlemen’s Beef Association vice president of government affairs Colin Woodall says they will fight against passage of the so-called egg bill that has been introduced in Congress.

That legislation, the result of the an agreement between the United Egg Producers and the Humane Society of the United States, would require larger cages for egg-laying hens.

We discussed NCBA’s concerns with Woodall at the Cattle Industry Convention in Nashville.
