Speak Out Against Bailouts for the Meat Industry!

The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed systemic weaknesses and supply chain risks that undermine food security and our nation's health. Unfortunately, the USDA's current prescription of bailing out the meat industry will only hurt more animals, workers, communities, and our planet. You can help bring this practice to an end!

Farm Sanctuary is calling on the USDA to direct funding allocated by Congress in any coronavirus stimulus package to support farms and businesses that produce fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes and other healthy foods.

It is irrational and inappropriate for USDA to bail out factory farms and slaughterhouses that cause so much harm to people, animals and the earth, and that already demand a disproportionate amount of both government and natural resources.

Tell the USDA to stop supporting the factory farming system, which destabilizes agricultural communities and food security, harms the environment, and is an affront to our humanity.
Dear Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue,

I'm writing to encourage you to direct USDA funding allocated by Congress in any coronavirus stimulus package to support farms and businesses that produce fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes and other healthy foods.

Instead of buying animal products and bailing out factory farms, the USDA should focus on purchasing and distributing these healthy foods, while incentivizing a shift toward plant based agriculture.

It is irrational and inappropriate for USDA to bail out factory farms and slaughterhouses that cause so much harm to people, animals and the earth, and that demand a disproportionate amount of both government and natural resources. We can feed more people with less land and fewer resources through plant based agriculture.

Thank you for taking urgent action on this serious matter.
