Bea directed me to an interview with Dr. Elizabeth Parker , the "chair man " (my emphasis) of the Animal Agriculture Alliance at CattleNetwork, which apparently is "The Source for Cattle News."

Chickens deserve to live humanely. That’s the least farmers can do. Congratulations to California for being so compassionate and leading the way.
