President Joe Biden's administration on Tuesday proposed a U.S. rule requiring farms to give egg-laying chickens access to the outdoors in order to earn the label 'organic,' closing loopholes but potentially giving companies up to 15 years to comply.
WASHINGTON - President Joe Biden's administration on Tuesday proposed a U.S. rule requiring farms to give egg-laying chickens access to the outdoors in order to earn the label "organic," closing loopholes but potentially giving companies up to 15 years to comply.
"Today marks the first significant movement on organic animal welfare in years," said Tom Chapman, CEO of the Organic Trade Association. The egg industry opposed the Obama-era rule, arguing it would raise the cost of eggs. Larry Sadler, vice president of animal welfare for egg industry trade group United Egg Producers, said the group did not yet have a position on the Biden administration's proposal.
