Alderman Moore with Gene Bauston, President of Farm Sanctuary

 

 

 

Today, in a historic move, the Chicago City Council banned the

sale of cruel foie gras within city limits! The passing of this humane proposal, introduced by Alderman

Joe Moore, makes Chicago the first city in America to enact such a measure. The vote relays the humane concerns

of Illinois citizens who were recently polled by Zogby, revealing an overwhelming 79 percent of whom agree that

foie gras production should be banned in the state. This legislation will have repercussions across the

country.

 

This is a triumph for farm animals everywhere and

the individuals who advocate on their behalf. THANK YOU to all who worked to help make this amazing victory

a reality!
