Dear Email,
A few weeks ago, we reached out as the Farm Bill began advancing provisions that threaten animal welfare. Now, the stakes are even higher. Factory farming lobbyists are pushing dangerous language that would wipe out hard-won protections like California’s Prop 12—laws that prohibit the most extreme forms of confinement for farmed animals.
Take Action today: vote YES on the Luna/Costa amendment and protect Prop 12.
At this critical moment, Congress has a choice: side with Big Ag companies or protect animals and uphold the will of millions of voters. The bipartisan Luna/Costa amendment offers a path forward by safeguarding essential protections passed by several states.
Without this amendment, the Farm Bill would:
- Strip away state-level animal welfare protections like Prop 12
-
Undermine public health and food system accountability
- Disregard the voices of millions of voters who supported improved standards
- Further entrench an industrial farming system that prioritizes profit over animal welfare
We can’t allow hard-won victories protecting animals from intensive confinement to be undermined or overturned. Legislators need to hear from you right now! A single message can influence how they vote in moments like this.
Tell Congress: Stand with animals, uphold voter-supported protections, and reject efforts to roll back progress.
We can’t afford to go backward.
