Dangerous ‘High-Speed’ Slaughter Plan Stopped!
USDA Withdraws Dangerous ‘High-Speed’ Chicken
Slaughter Rule
On Monday, the USDA withdrew a cruel and dangerous proposal to increase maximum bird slaughter speeds to a staggering 175 birds per minute, sparing chickens and meat-packing workers from increased suffering and injury.
This is a win for animals and humans — at those breakneck speeds, blades are more likely to miss birds’ throats, causing fully-conscious chickens to be boiled alive in scalding hot water. And workers are more likely to suffer severe injuries like severed limbs.
Still, pigs across the country endure high-speed kill lines. Please add your voice to help protect them, too.
Sign Lady Freethinker’s petition urging the USDA to end all high-speed slaughter in the United States.
