Our campaign to see CKE Restaurants, owner of Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr, is going strong thanks to your support week after week! Let’s keep the momentum going by reaching out to two influential leaders involved with CKE- Dan Ponder, a CKE board member and Hardee’s franchisee and Charles Esten, CKE’s spokesperson, reminding them that they have the power to create meaningful change for countless animals. 1) Call Dan Ponder Call: (229) 524-2083 Ext 101 *Please leave a message if no one answers.* Say: "​I am very disappointed to learn that Hardee’s allows extreme animal cruelty in its chicken supply chain. As an influential leader with CKE, please urge Hardee’s to join its competitors and adopt a strong chicken welfare policy. Until this issue is addressed, I will be boycotting Hardee’s and encouraging others to do so!" 2) Post on Charles Esten’s Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/officialcharlesesten/ Option #1: Charles Esten, did you know that Hardee’s refuses to adopt the same animal welfare standards as its competitors? As the spokesperson for Hardee's and Carl’s Jr, please use your platform to speak up for better treatment of animals by urging CKE Restaurants to adopt a strong chicken welfare policy. https://www.change.org/p/hardee-s-carl-s-jr-demand-better-from-your-chicken-suppliers Option #2: Charles Esten, you have a beautiful voice, please use it to speak up for the chickens suffering needlessly in Hardee’s supply chain! https://youtu.be/gpovs04w-6Q Thank you!
