Witnesses testified on the U.S. Egg Production Regulation Bill, S. 3239. Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), one of the witnesses and the bill’s sponsor, explained that the bill was an agreement between the United Egg Producers and the Humane Society to set federal standards for the treatment of egg-laying hens. Farmers in favor of the bill described it as vital to the future stability of the industry, while a witness opposed to the measure said it would force many smaller egg farmers to leave the business. close
