Should Massachusetts prohibit the sale of new fur products in the state? John Laidler
State representative, Framingham Democrat
Massachusetts residents made it abundantly clear that we cared about animals when we passed the 2016 farm animal protection ballot initiative with nearly 78 percent of the vote. Now we should finally say “no” to fur, a product so outdated and cruel that many fashion retailers – including Massachusetts’ own TJX and most recently Saks Fifth Avenue – are forgoing it for better alternatives.
To that end, I filed H965, a bipartisan bill with 40 cosponsors from across the Commonwealth, which would phase out the retail sale of new animal fur products. A companion bill in the Senate (S623) would do the same.
