President Obama on Iran: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz”

"My name is —, I live at — zip code —. I’m calling about the disgusting 'Save our Bacon' plan to use the Farm Bill to overrule voter referendums and subject animals to horrific, unnatural cruelty. Please vote down the Bill while it has this provision."
Congress about to remove most state animal welfare protections for factory farms.
This is what the GOP prioritizes.
I suggest calling your member of Congress.
This is shocking: the House Rules Committee just blocked a vote on stripping the Save Our Bacon Act from the farm bill.
The SOB Act, buried deep in the farm bill, would wipe out state bans on pork from crated pigs, condemning millions to a lifetime in gestation crates.
We were getting very close to having the votes to pass Rep. Luna’s bipartisan amendment to strip the SOB Act from the bill on the floor of the House.
Then pork industry lobbyists got to work. Behind closed doors, they got Rules Committee leadership to stop a vote entirely and protect the SOB Act from the scrutiny it can’t survive.
The only option now is to kill the whole rotten farm bill. Please call your representatives at (202) 225-3121 and tell them to vote NO.
