Hi John, 

I am sitting-in at a newly built slaughterhouse in California where over 8,000 pigs are killed every single week, including pigs coming from Smithfield farms across the Western USA. I am with dozens of other activists and we can hear the heartbreaking cries of these pigs from across the road as they await their deaths. Join me live.

I hate coming to these places, but I know that turning away and ignoring their suffering helps no one. This is why we just released an alarming investigation into this facility and are now demanding an immediate moratorium on the construction of factory farms and slaughterhouses in California, as a first step towards banning them completely. But it’s not going to be easy. Smithfield is a $16 billion dollar company and they’re doing everything they can to stop us, so we need your help.

This sit-in is just the beginning of our fight to take down Smithfield. When we take bold action and big risks, it helps to know that there are thousands of people out there who have our back.

Thank you for your support and your dedication to the movement, 
Almira
