Mail Staff Writer Chaffee County commissioners voted to approve a resolution opposing a citizen-initiated ballot initiative, 1B – “Protect Animals from Unnecessary Suffering and Exploitation,” at their regular meeting Tuesday. Commissioner Keith Baker made the presentation on the proposed resolution, pointing out the language of the ballot initiative echoes things that are already illegal and incorporates language “so vague and so general it would prohibit generally accepted animal husbandry practices and other animal treatments for both small animals and large livestock animals.” Baker said he had not spoken to anyone statewide who is in favor of the initiative. He said while the initiative may have “noble intent,” its language is potentially detrimental to the state’s livestock industry and organizations such as 4-H, Future Farmers of America and rodeo, including the National Western Stock Show.
