- DC voters may see a November ballot initiative banning certain foie gras sales
An animal advocacy group in Washington D.C. has submitted over 45,000 signatures for a ballot initiative (Initiative 86) to ban the sale of force-fed foie gras. The proposal targets duck livers produced through force-feeding, while non-force-fed foie gras would remain legal. The initiative requires 28,728 valid signatures to qualify for the November 2023 ballot, with a deadline of July 6 for submission.
