California shark fin ban moves forward

kgo
By ABC7
SAN FRANCISCO

The bill, promoted by conservationists, would stop shark fin sales by the end of next year.

Some lawmakers, including state Sen. Leland Yee, D-San Francisco, say the bill unfairly targets Asian cultures, which use the fins for soup.

The bill passed the Senate appropriations committee and now moves to the full Senate for a vote in the next few weeks.
