Bill Summary
For legislation to enhance the issuance of citations for cruel conditions for animals. Municipalities and Regional Government.
AI Summary
This bill aims to enhance the issuance of citations for cruel conditions for animals. Specifically, it proposes to amend Section 174E of Chapter 140 of the General Laws to apply subsection (f)(1) of that section, which allows for the issuance of citations for cruel conditions, to farm animals as defined in 9 C.F.R. § 1.1 (2016). This change would extend the existing law's provisions regarding the citation of cruel conditions to a broader range of animals, including those used in agricultural settings.
