It is now illegal in Kentucky to expose the illegal treatment or processing of animals.
When exposing crime is punished, you are governed by criminals.
To clear up some confusion, the red legislature passed this Ag-Gag law, the governor vetoed it, then the legislature overturned the veto, with a few dissenting votes - but not enough to stop the overturn. So the Ag-Gag law is now adopted.
Also, I don't see how you get "protecting" animals out of any of that. Are you some kind of factory farming shill? It absolutely does not say that, even this blurb.
The governor vetoed the bill to stop the right wing nutjob legislation from criminalizing whistleblowers. The nutjobs in question then overrode the veto.
