Activists can be relentless in their attacks against animal agriculture, but last year’s ballot measures were shot down.
National Pork Producers CEO Bryan Humphreys reflects on the wins for agriculture.
“There was a ballot measure in Sonoma County, California, and one in Denver, Colorado — the one in Sonoma County was going to ban confined animal feeding operations, and 85% of the folks there voted against that and with American farmers,” Humphreys explains. “In the state of Colorado, in Denver, there was an effort to ban harvest facilities, and 65% of Denver voters voted with American agriculture to stop that ban. A couple of bright spots over the election, where the voters stuck with American agriculture.”
Humphreys was especially encouraged by these efforts to stop the bans, calling the grassroots agriculture efforts heartwarming.
