We want to thank Rep. Blumenauer for championing this important legislation. We’re also thankful for the many groups and individuals who have joined Farm Sanctuary in support for the Food and Farm Act, including:

ASPCA, HSLF, Compassion in World Farming, Animal Welfare Institute, the Center for Biological Diversity, DC Voters for Animals, Marion Nestle, Mark Bittman, Slow Food USA, Open Markets Institute, Environmental Working Group, League of Conservation Voters, Taxpayers for Common Sense, Food and Water Watch, Kiss the Ground, Animals are Sentient Beings Inc, Friends of the Earth, Food Tank, Eco Trust, Consumer Federation of America, Independent Restaurant Coalition, and others!

Following today’s kickoff event, we’re supporting 14 satellite events across the country to “Shift the Farm Bill,” including at 11 colleges and universities. These opportunities allow for continued, regional conversations about the ways we can change our food system.

By partnering with policy leaders and food-justice organizations, Farm Sanctuary is performing a critical role in bringing plant-based, systems-changing solutions into conversations around United States food and farm spending. Together, we can build compassionate, just, and sustainable food systems that work for everyone!

Please lend your voice to this campaign: Ask your elected officials to support the 2023 Food and Farm Act today!

Stay tuned for more ways to get involved. We’ll also share the full video of the kickoff event on our YouTube channel in the week ahead.
