When companies fail to fulfill their cage-free promises, animals live in agony.
Conscious consumers care about the ethical treatment of animals—and the food industry knows it. So when a company makes a pledge to stop confining animals in tiny wire cages, they know it makes them look good… on paper.
But promises mean nothing without substantive action. Without meaningful follow-through from corporations that promise to do better, animals in cages continue to live in agony. This is not okay.
The fight to defend animals from horrifying cruelty isn’t over yet. It’s unfolding as I write to you—not just at corporate headquarters across the nation but also at the US Supreme Court, which is weighing whether or not to uphold what’s considered the strongest animal protection law in the world.
If I’ve learned anything, it’s that victory isn’t sealed when a law gets passed—or when a company publishes a commitment to do better for animals. Victory is in making sure the industry actually puts its plans into motion and ends the suffering of animals. That’s why it’s more critical than ever to hold companies to their word.
And that’s where you and I come in. Because victory for animals happens in the follow-through.
Right now, 7-Eleven—a global chain with immense reach—is going back on its word. 7-Eleven promised to stop confining animals in cages by 2025, but it removed its cage-free policy from its website and hasn’t reported any progress.
This is unacceptable. What’s 7-Eleven trying to hide? It’s time to demand accountability.
Ready to make a difference? Here are three ways you can help right now:
- Take a 1-minute action!
- Volunteer with us.
- Make a gift to fuel this campaign for the animals, if you’re able.
A more compassionate future is possible—if companies fulfill their promises. Thanks for helping to hold them accountable!
For the animals,
