Short description: 
SAFE EGG ACT                                                               

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Creates  the  Safe  Egg  Act.   Prohibits  the  use   of   forced      
   (starvation-induced)  molting  procedures  on  egg-laying hens.  Makes      
   violation a Class A misdemeanor.  Provides for administration  by  the      
   Department  of  Agriculture.    Authorizes civil penalties and certain      
   enforcement actions.  Effective immediately.                                
          FISCAL NOTE (Department of Agriculture)                              
          Impact on the Department for additional staff would total            
          $290,000. This cost figure could potentially be higher               
          dependent on the number of such operations within the State.
