Animal Welfare

On March 8, the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) voted to become the first school district of its size to require hormone- and antibiotic-free chicken in its school meals. More than 732,800 students are enrolled at LAUSD’s 1.274 schools.
The full changes go into effect in fall 2017.

Antibiotic superbugs were once an anomaly, but now they contribute to a massive and looming health crisis. Help send a message to some of the biggest users of meat raised on antibiotics — McDonald’s, KFC, Wendy’s, Burger King, and Subway — to help reverse this public health challenge.
