“Instead of protecting animals on farms from abuse, Senate Bill 1248 is a thinly veiled attempt by the agriculture industry to paralyze the efforts of those concerned about the treatment of animals to collect evidence of a pattern of routine cruelty, which has helped officials win convictions against animal abusers around the country, by forcing them to turn over evidence of single instances of abuse almost immediately. … Because there is no government inspection of farms for cruelty violations and because workers who report abuse are frequently ignored, investigations are often the only way to hold farm workers and managers accountable to existing laws.”

—Emmylou Harris, in a letter to Tennessee’s governor to veto a bill making it criminal to investigate abuse on farms through the use of undercover filming.

—Missy Higgins, on her wavering plant-based diet. Not only is it hard to find vegan food on the road, it’s much easier to find Tim Tams. Higgins explained the chocolate covered desserts “might be half the reason why I find it so hard to be vegan!”
