Chicago's ordinance targets fur production due to animal cruelty, environmental pollution, toxic chemicals, and zoonotic diseases like COVID-19. It defines 'fur product', bans their sale or distribution with specific exemptions, and imposes a $500 fine per offense. Effective a year after passage, the city council aims to decrease fur demand and promote animal welfare.
