Stronger Laws to Enforce Humane Factory Farming

Stronger Laws to Enforce Humane Factory Farming

The Issue

The Humane Slaughter Act only covers cows and pigs it does not protect any poultry. All animals and poultry suffer and feel pain. Even with the Humane Slaughter Act in place animals and poultry are still frequently mistreated by workers at the farms, on the way to slaughter and at the slaughter houses. The slaughter methods are inhumane. The stun systems are ineffective and many animals/poultry are either skinned, boiled or dismembered alive and are aware of pain. These procedures need to either stop completely or at least be much more heavily monitored.
 Please help get this message to President Barack Obama!
