Senate Panel Tables Ban on Cockfighting
From Times Wire Reports
A state Senate committee rejected a proposal to ban cockfighting, making it unlikely the sport will be outlawed this year in one of two states where it is legal.
The Conservation Committee voted 6-2 to table the proposal.
Louisiana is the only other state where cockfighting is legal. Thirteen of New Mexico’s 33 counties outlaw cockfighting.
