House Bill 4496 would also “require research facilities to submit annual reports to the department of agriculture and rural development that provide certain information regarding the release of laboratory animals,” as well as “provide immunity from civil liability under certain conditions.” It was introduced on April 24 by Representative Kevin Hertel.
