Foot and Mouth Bill Clears Kansas House to Graves
The Kansas House passed an emergency plan bill 124 to 1 sending it to Gov. Bill Graves, with the Senate approving 40 to 0 last week. The measure would let the governor declare a disaster over a contagious animal disease, issue quarantines, and take steps to stop spread if an outbreak occurs. It also makes it a felony to knowingly infect animals, notes that federal costs cover slaughtered livestock, and bans feeding garbage to animals.
