Dear Friends,
Welcome to FACT Sheets-Filthy Feed Edition! I'm
excited to announce that earlier this week we officially
kicked off our national campaign to ban the use of
poultry waste as feed for cows. This practice is
disgusting, not to mention dangerous for animals and
people. Read below for more information and how
you can take action!
Don't forget to become a member of FACT's
Facebook
today and invite others to join. As always, please visit
our web
site for more information. Our secure Donate page makes it easier than ever to give
to FACT. Thank you for your support!
Sincerely,
Richard Wood
Executive Director
