A Federal law, The Caging Prohibition Act, was introduced in the Senate last year and the House earlier this year.

Of course, it was with the full knowledge that it would never reach the desk of Bush, where it would certainly have been vetoed.

Depending on this election, it may or may not move quickly towards enactment....particularly with a larger Democratic majority in both the House and Senate.

I would be interested in seeing the details of this.
