Massachusetts lawmakers are close to delaying a measure similar to California’s Prop 12 which bans the sale of meat products from animals without a minimum amount of space.
Voters approved “Question 3" in 2016 and it was set to go into effect in January. The State House passed a law to delay it until 2023. The Senate has yet to vote.
So far, industry groups have been unsuccessful in getting courts to overturn Prop 12.
