Milestone in Mexico
MFA worked with members of Mexico’s congress to introduce first-of-its-kind federal legislation to protect millions of farmed animals from slaughter while conscious and able to feel pain. The proposed legislation has so far received nearly unanimous support.
Powerful Petition
Around 98 percent of land animals slaughtered in the U.S. are birds, yet they are excluded from the Humane Methods of Slaughter Act. MFA’s legal team filed a historic petition urging the USDA to include them.
Because of policy commitments to reducing meat and egg consumption by 20 percent, school districts, universities, and social assistance programs across Brazil and Mexico will serve about 26 million more vegan meals each year.
After discussions with MFA, the Mexican federal government passed a resolution urging schools to cut out meat and eggs once a week.
