Letter On CAFO’s
In the wake of the recent failure of the CAFO moratorium bill here in Indiana, local water advocate Barbara Sha Cox sent in an opinion piece to the Pal-Item: CAFO slowdown is needed:
There are several legislators who are concerned and have introduced legislation to address the issues. However, their legislation is always blocked by those who are not listening to the citizens and have chosen to only listen to agricultural business. Legislators interested in the citizens’ point of view include Senator Allen Paul (R-Richmond) with his bill for a moratorium for three years to study the issues and place in lawregulations that would address the issues.
