A worthy cause to vote for in favor of more humane treatment for factory farm animals. It's a start anyway.

Yes on Prop 2 Campaign Update
With less than 8 weeks left before the big day, the Yes on Prop 2 campaign is barreling forward and showing greater success than any other California proposition. A groundswell is developing throughout the state and the country - one of tremendous public support and recognition that no animal should be treated cruelly, including farm animals.
Yes on Prop 2 is a landmark campaign that will simply give animals crammed in tiny cages and crates - calves, pregnant pigs and laying hens - enough room to turn around and spread their limbs. Californians from north to south have recognized this, and have been hitting the pavement at events throughout the state. There could be no better grassroots campaign than this.
Yes on Prop 2’s success has not only opened the eyes of thousands, but it has garnered the attention of the opposition. They have responded by clearly demonstrating that no depth is too low for them to sink in an effort to keep profits and cruelty high. They have attempted to launder money through government sources and have been bankrolled by some of the country’s worst animal abusers. It is no secret, anymore, that big corporate agribusiness would like nothing more than to profit on continued cruelty.
Farm Sanctuary has been traveling throughout the state, showing the public video of life on factory farms. The reception has been exceptional. Many are shocked to learn that this sort of systemic abuse is commonplace across California. We were assured by hundreds that they will be doing all they can to support and encourage others to vote YES on Prop 2. But we’re not stopping there! We will be on the road from now until Election Day. To find out more about where the Truth Behind Factory Farming Truck will be, and to read about the campaign, check out our Yes on Prop 2! campaign page.
Thank you for all your hard work, and we’ll see you on the campaign trail!
