, opining, “My friends & I should not have to live in fear of being trapped & our fur being sold!”
California voters in 2018 overwhelming approved a statewide proposition requiring cage-free quarters for egg-laying chickens and other animals being raised for food. “If you take care of your environment, if you take care of animals, you teach good stewardship and you also teach compassion,” Friedman said.
“There’s no reason for this bill other than one class of society telling another class of society what they can and cannot wear,” Jones said. The fur ban would mark a victory for animal rights activists, who for decades protested retailers and fashion designers that included fur products in their clothing lines.
Supporters say the passage of AB 44 will spur states such as New York, Hawaii, Minnesota and Ohio to push ahead with bans of their own in what could be a victory for animal rights activists and an economic boon for faux fur manufacturers.
