I just e-mailed Chris Christoff, the author of this article, asking if he had a list of the 26 states. I'll let you know if so and which states are on it.

Since he's in Michigan, I told him I'm in Ann Arbor, and I'd contacted Rep. Santana (mentioned in the article) and am waiting to hear back from him on how I can help.

The Animal Legal Defense Fund is also working on this, with a petition at http://www.exposeanimalabusers.org/section.php?id=163
