          We, the undersigned, write to demand immediate action to rectify the
          abuses of the factory farming industry around the world, and protect
          whistleblowers who expose this misconduct and help the suffering
          animals.

          <p>
            The toll of factory farming is beyond doubt. Industrial animal farms
            are one of the largest causes of climate change and habitat loss.
            They contribute to serious public health risks, including antibiotic
            resistance that sickens and kills young children. And they inflict
            grotesque cruelty on billions of sentient beings. Polling data shows
            that an overwhelming 97% of the US public believes that animals need
            some legal protection from exploitation, and 49% believes factory
            farms should be outright banned. These numbers increase every year,
            which is why leading political commentators and philosophers have
            described animal rights as the next frontier of social justice.
          </p>

          <p>
            Yet far from supporting progress, our political and corporate
            leaders have too often blocked it. Nationwide, the industry receives
            billions of dollars in subsidies -- including corporate welfare for
            millionaires. Government-established price controls gouge consumers,
            especially those who are in most need, and deceptive corporate
            marketing manipulates us into taking actions against our own values.
            Laws have been passed to prohibit competition in the market by
            plant-based alternatives. And perhaps most frighteningly, our most
            basic civil liberties have been undermined -- and over 120
            nonviolent activists and whistleblowers have been arrested on felony
            charges and threatened with prison -- for exposing the industry’s
            misconduct and trying to help suffering animals.
          </p>

          <p>
            The devastating toll of this industry -- on the planet, on our
            citizens, and on animals -- demands action. We are calling for an
            immediate end to the government support of factory farming abuses
            and the draconian prosecutions of nonviolent activists. And at the
            heart of this issue, we demand legal protection for animals,
            including the legal right of all animals to be rescued from
            situations of distress and exploitation.

              DxE co-founder Wayne Hsiung is being charged with felony counts of
              breaking or entering and larceny, as well as a misdemeanor
              trespass count for rescuing a sick baby goat from a goat meat
              ranch in North Carolina, an incident which unfolded on Facebook
              live. Wayne took the baby, named Rain, to emergency veterinary
              care and today, Rain is safe with a family who takes care of him.
              Wayne's trial is scheduled to begin Monday November 29th at the
              Transylvania County Courthouse in Brevard, NC.
