Delighted that @EdLaborCmte voted to advance my bipartisan #BARKAct as part of the Healthy Meals, Healthy Kids Act.

Let's pass this commonsense bill to promote charity for animals, remove bureaucratic disincentives to donating and reduce food waste.

We’re excited to share our new ad in @politico urging Congress to pass the SAFE Act to end horse slaughter. You can help by contacting your lawmaker today!

It’s been said that the wolf was humankind’s first companion, but we recast them as villains and burned them like witches when we enclosed Europe and colonized the world with ranching, writes @Unpop_Science. https://t.co/FTAnaeMlSP

Yet another grim example of how our broken food system is failing animals, workers, and consumers We must transition to a more humane and just system, and away from the abusive practices of factory farms. https://t.co/XHWzIjfomN

Chicken is the most popular meat in the U.S. That has come at a high cost for the chickens and farmers who are contracted to raise them.

Only 6 percent of the world’s farm animals are located in the US and Europe, but most of the approx. $200 million in funding for farmed animal welfare advocacy was directed towards these regions. @MarcGunther

Protecting animals and reducing food waste - thank you @RepRaskin for introducing this common sense legislation!

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

No shelter pet should go hungry, especially not when pet stores nationwide are throwing away surplus food.

Proud to introduce the #BARKAct to provide liability waivers to donating pet suppliers. It’s a win-win—we'll reduce food waste and support animal shelters in need.

[Compassion in World Farming UK @ciwf]

Octopus are fascinating, inquisitive, sentient creatures with individual personalities. 🐙 Despite this there are plans to confine them in factory farms.

We've released a new report revealing why octopus farming must be stopped: https://t.co/JhXnCXqx61
