Watch our new campaign video then sign up to be a part of this

important effort.

Your help is urgently needed to end three of the worst abuses animals

endure on factory farms!

 

Thousands of California citizens are volunteering their time to

collect 650,000 signatures from other Californians to place the

Prevention of Farm Animal Cruelty Act on the November 2008 ballot.

 

This common-sense ballot measure will reduce a tremendous amount of

suffering and intensive confinement. It requires that animals be able

to turn around and extend their limbs, meaning that it would prohibit

battery cages for egg-laying hens, veal crates for calves, and

gestation crates for breeding pigs. Please take a moment to check out

a new campaign video about this historic initiative.

 

We still need to gather hundreds of thousands of signatures before

the end of February! But we can only do this with your active

participation!

 

As a California resident and voter, you can volunteer to help place

this critically important measure on the ballot. We really need your

help. Will you help us and volunteer to collect signatures to help

us reach our goal?

 

It's simple, fun, and rewarding -- and this measure alone will reduce

the misery that 20 million farm animals endure in the state in

cramped cages and crates on factory farms. And please also tell your

friends and family how they can get involved in the signature

gathering effort. If you are already a volunteer, thank you! If you

haven't been involved, now is the time!

 

With your help, we can win an enormously significant victory for farm

animals in California.

 

Sincerely,

I posted about this a couple of weeks ago. We now have just under 163,500

signatures, so we have a lot to go, but we can do it. Please consider

volunteering. You can be part of making history for abused farm animals. You

will regret it if you don't...

 

For the animals,

 

Melissa
