Good News! OLCSB Reverses Decision on Veal Crates

Many of you recall the disappointing news in March that the Ohio Livestock Care Standards Board (OLCSB) voted to remove the provision requiring that calves have enough room to move, proposing to allow their confinement in tiny crates for the first 10 weeks of their lives and violating the agreement. However, thanks to the tireless work of Farm Sanctuary and other animal advocates, on April 5 the OLCSB voted unanimously to reverse their decision, and to phase out the use of veal crates in Ohio.

It is great news that in this case profit didn't trump ethics. The simple act of phasing out veal crates in Ohio will alleviate the suffering of calves exploited by the dairy and meat industries. Let’s all be encouraged to continue exposing the victimization of God’s animals in order to bring healing and reconciliation in God’s Creation!.
