Sen. Theis Introduces Legislation to Repeal Cage Free Egg Law
BIG NEWS: Today, I introduced legislation to repeal the requirement that eggs sold in Michigan be cage-free and eliminate the mandate requiring farmers and producers to use cage-free systems to raise egg-laying chickens.
Egg prices have soared by 36.8% over the past year, with prices reaching a high of nearly $9 per dozen in certain areas. While the spread of bird flu is attributed as the primary driver of these record-high prices, there is no doubt that the added burden of cage-free mandates exacerbates the issue for Michigan consumers.
While I cannot promise this legislation will immediately lower egg prices, I can promise it will remove one of the factors contributing to the financial strain on both farmers and families. By giving producers greater flexibility to choose systems that work best for their operations, we are empowering them to focus on rebuilding healthy flocks and stabilizing our state’s egg supply.
