Check out the episode with Colleen Patrick-Goudreau.</li><li>Compassion in World Farming is one of the largest farm animal protection organizations. They also help with food system reform and change.</li><li>Our food system is broken. It is financially and nutritionally inefficient with so much of the world's seeds and grains going to feed animals instead of people.</li><li>Cage-free eggs are NOT HUMANE. They cost double or triple conventional eggs when the added cost per egg is only 1-5 cents.</li><li>The SAVE OUR BACON ACT would be a law stuck in the farm bill that would nullify all state laws prohibiting crates. Why oppose the SOBA: it nullifies all animal protection laws, it's bad for smaller farmers who actually believe animals should have space to move, and it takes away states' rights and overturns voter-approved laws.</li><li>How you can help stop SOBA: <strong>call your US Senator at 202-224-3121</str
