Today Popeyes became the first major fast-food chicken chain to commit to eliminating the worst suffering for chickens across its U.S. and Canadian supply chains. This historic commitment, which
will impact tens of millions of chickens every year, came about through
conversations with Mercy For Animals.

Your support made this groundbreaking progress possible.

Popeyes’ policy change will end particularly cruel practices for birds, including these:

* Live-shackle slaughter: Birds are shackled upside down on a conveyor, shocked with electricity, slit
open by a throat-cutting machine, and sometimes boiled alive.
* Genetic selection for extreme growth: Bred to grow so large so fast, birds often suffer crippling leg deformities,
organ failure, heart attacks, and other obesity-related ailments.
* Filthy, cramped confinement: Birds sit in their own excrement and often cannot stretch their wings or
perform other natural behaviors.

John, we could not have done this without you. Please
celebrate this amazing success.

It’s now time for McDonald’s [[link removed]] , KFC, Chick-Fil-A and other restaurant chains to stop dragging their feet. And
with you by our side, we will continue to fight for animals suffering in factory
farms.

Thank you for all you do for farmed animals.
Sincerely, Leah Garcés
