Stop Ag-Gag!

Billions of farmed animals live and die on cruel, unhealthy, and unsustainable factory farm conditions. Secrecy is what makes this system possible but hundreds of undercover investigations are slowly helping to end it. That is why the agribusiness lobby is trying to pass ag-gag: anti-free speech laws that would jail anyone who makes an unauthorized recording on a farm.

Corporate backers of factory farming continue to work harder than ever to pass ag-gag bills, and a new ag-gag bill became law in North Carolina in June, 2015. We are part of a coalition of animal advocates, civil rights groups, and media organizations that is currently fighting this new law in federal court.

I believe that citizens have a right to know about how food animals are raised and slaughtered. Ag-gag is a bad idea because we should punish the people who commit animal abuse, not the people who report it.
