| free range (uncaged) large poultry operation |
Minnesota is a 'fly-over' state, one which is active in producing the food supplies for the entire nation and beyond. In this context, I contacted the office of one of our Minnesota senators, junior Senator Al Franken. My response to that contact was extraordinarily prompt, and as has been my experience when contacting his office on other matters, his response was also substantive and to the point - not some 'blow-off' generic / one-size-fits-all reply. I found the content of that response sufficiently interesting in view of the current egg-recall and related large number of illness, and the subsequent findings of sanitation-related problems with the mega-factory farming operation in our adjoining state of Iowa to be worth sharing here,
