   ..... Cosmetics tested on animals. Does this  also mean we can not put lipstick on pigs anymore?

   I have never put lipstick on a pig, so I am not going to start now.
   
   In light of Jerry Brown's vetos and signatures into law, he is as liberal as they come. Don't get me wrong, I am totally against ANY animal testing. I buy animal-free testing products only. How is a California law going to stop a company in Texas from animal testing!!!?
   
   He also signed the Neutrality bill as well. I don't think he knows his abbreviations very well. "www" means World Wide Web.
   
   California is regulated way too much, crazy.

   I agree that CA is over regulated, but the law doesn't say they are trying to stop animal testing  in any other state -- just the SALE of such products in California.

      I see that this is important to you, though my original response was a true classic. Your post was unclear; are you for or against it. I wish to know how to proceed.

         Not that important to me,except that will require another office full of bureaucrats to figure out how to implement and enforce the law. When it mentioned cosmetics and animals it just reminded me of lipstick on a pig.

            Still loving when they fly. Our State, even though a mess, still puts into the Federal Reserve more than we take out. How do we do that? I have no idea.

                     Tech comes very close, then there’s tourism and media. Not sure where pigs come in.

   Animal testing needs to be stopped, but regulating it just creates more paperwork and costs taxpayers more money.

      In America, animals are routinely castrated. In Mexico (and I guessing others), they are not.

      I consider that part of media which includes entertainment. Of course Hollywood is not what it once was.  Most people think CA is L.A. area and Bay Area, not knowing  that the state produces a significant amount of food.
      My neighbor collects weather vanes . One of them has a large copper pig  with wings — Para would like it.
