Great news: the Senate farm bill base text won't include the Save Our Bacon Act, which would wipe out state bans on pork from crated pigs.
Senate Ag Chair John Boozman said it's too controversial to include. That's thanks to everyone who called and posted about this.
But the fight's not over. Iowa's Chuck Grassley and Joni Ernst will likely now try to add the SOB Act to the bill as a committee amendment.
Keep the calls to your senators going: (202) 224-3121. Tell them: no farm bill with the Save Our Bacon Act in it. We can win this.

More than three million Virginians cast their ballots in Virginia’s redistricting referendum, and the majority of Virginia voters voted to push back against a President who said he is ‘entitled’ to more Republican seats in Congress with a temporary and responsive referendum. They made their voices heard.
I am disappointed by the Supreme Court of Virginia’s ruling, but my focus as Governor will be on ensuring that all voters have the information necessary to make their voices heard this November in the midterm elections because in those elections we — the voters — will have the final say.
This is a pivotal moment not only for sparing millions of pigs from torture, but also for testing whether any meaningful regulation of industrial animal agriculture—an industry that devastates animal welfare, public health, and the environment—will be possible in our country in the near future.
Please call your representatives today, and ask them to kill the Farm Bill.
In a normal country, the president having this sort of relationship with the most infamous child sex trafficker of our time would bring the government to its knees
Bernie; So the entire medical and scientific community disagrees with you, who are your sources that agree with you?
He actually said Dr. Oz with a straight face‼️
This is becoming a race to the bottom. There is zero incentive for US citizens to become physicians anymore. Why go through the headaches and expense and years of delaying life to study/train when some jackass politicians decide they know better than you about healthcare.
Ironically enough, our best chance to end gerrymandering nationwide is for blue states to gerrymander to such an extreme degree the GOP cries Uncle and begs for the federal ban Dems tried to pass in 2021.
CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery.
America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.
Watch and share his message.
They're trying to rig the maps to avoid accountability for screwing the people of Texas — taking health care away from millions, gutting public schools, failing foster kids, and turning their backs on hungry children.
Democrats can’t get a crosswalk installed when they have all three branches, but it took Republicans 6 months to gut the entire US government like it was a Red Lobster.
