Senator Jim Miller (FL) recently introduced S.B. 1246, which would make it a first-degree felony to take a picture of a farm animal without the owner’s permission in Florida. Representative Brian Quirk (IA) seeks to criminalize undercover investigations at factory farms, claiming that a truth-seeker who works undercover at a factory farm and documents egregious cruelty is, in fact, a terrorist.
