On November 3rd, Ohioans will head to the polls to decide on new standards for livestock care. Passing Issue 2 will create a 13-member board who “will be comprised of Ohio experts in animal care, food production, farm management and food safety who will establish standards governing care of the state’s livestock and poultry.”
