Abstract

The note argues that the United States lags behind European countries in protecting animals used in agriculture, with inadequate regulations endangering public health and ignoring voter concerns. It advocates for the repeal of "ag-gag" laws and antitrust enforcement to dismantle the meat industry's monopoly, aligning with public policy and improving animal welfare standards.
