Today Rep. Langworthy and I introduced the COMPACT Act, which will modernize federally funded biomedical research and end inhumane testing practices on cats and dogs.

If I was putting on a Climate Week food event about good farming practices, I personally would opt to not have it cosponsored by a company that was found to raise animals in unspeakably cruel conditions. But maybe that's just me.

New episode! @marisul.bsky.social dismantles the animal industry's favorite defense — that cruelty is fine as long as someone else is crueler. From foie gras to factory farms, it's a frustrating ride. 😤 Listen on your fav podcatcher, watch on our YouTube, or check out ourhenhouse.org/ep983

Remembering Henry Salt, born on this day in 1851. His 1892 book “Animals' Rights: Considered in Relation to Social Progress” was among the first works to demand rights for animals rather than mere kindness toward them.

URGENT: Big Oil is pushing our planet to the limit and needs to be held accountable for the devastation it wreaks for profit. But two new bills could give the industry full legal immunity — and they're being voted on TOMORROW. If passed, they'll then go to the House for consideration.

Apparently, Burgum needed to be reminded of his confirmation hearing pledge to “protect every single inch” of the #NationalParks. We're calling on him to stop proposed #Yosemite transfer before a piece of Yosemite is given away forever. ➡️ bit.ly/4h3Gpvj #HandsOffPublicLands 🐺🦉🌲

Three beluga whales died over the course of eight days at Shedd Aquarium. Despite its storied reputation, it's a reminder that even top-rated aquariums can't give animals what they need in captivity.

I wrote about what's called the "small body problem," how it accounts for the vast majority of animal suffering in food production, and how small changes to how we eat could slash the number of animals factory-farmed:

DRUMBO PARK GREYHOUND TRACK CLOSES. The track near Lisburn, Northern Ireland says closure may not be permanent, but cites failure to attract enough customers. This leaves just one operational greyhound racing track in Northern Ireland. 🚫 Please don't attend or bet on greyhound races. #YouBetTheyDie
