Hi John, 

I am at the California State Capitol right now and I just watched over a dozen of my friends get arrested for asking Governor Newsom to enact a moratorium on new factory farms and  slaughterhouses. Three activists are still on the balcony locking down to get an answer from the Governor. After months of delivering letters asking the Governor to take immediate action, we were forced to take action in their own hands. 

Watch the video of activists being arrested and share the action to help us reach Governor Newsom. 

Earlier this week, DxE activists chained themselves at the entrance of a massive pig slaughterhouse in California, blocking trucks from coming inside. Armed security guards assaulted nonviolent activists on lockdown who stood in the way of pigs being slaughtered. Now, the government is ramping up their use of force and sending peaceful protesters to jail. 

Instead of punishing nonviolent activists, Governor Newsom could lead the way. We're calling on him to take the first step toward shutting down this dangerous industry and enshrining rights for all animals. You can help by sharing today's action!
