The Animal Rights Activists Circle wants you to know that May is International Respect for Chickens Month when we celebrate chickens throughout the world and protest the bleakness of their lives in farming and cockfighting operations.
Did you know that over 136 million chickens are killed worldwide every day (yes, every day) to be food for humans?
A few times this month we will be providing links to podcasts, websites, and films that we hope inspire you to work toward ending this horrific industry.
We are available to you with any questions or concerns you have about becoming vegan and why you should consider making the transition. And we’ll be providing access to some free gifts, so stay tuned!
To begin, we would like to share with you a brief, informative PowerPoint presentation that explains the myth of "cage-free" eggs. humanemyth.org/cagefree.htm
Additionally, "Letter From a Vegan World" is a quick but powerful read explaining the fiction of "free-range" eggs. peacefulprairie.org/letter.html
We will have a Q and A on May 18 at 8 pm ET/5 pm PT for anyone who wants to join us with any questions about veganism and/or our Animal Rights Activists circle. Here's the link to sign up in advance. Hope to see you there! peoplesparty-org.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

The #First100Days of a president’s term are historically their best chance to enact their agenda. What has Biden done?
Biden and Harris promised to implement a public option and lower the age of Medicare to 60, policies that fail to cover the 92 million Americans who are uninsured or underinsured and save the 68,000 who die every year from a lack of insurance. #MedicareForAll
But Biden and the Democrats didn’t even live up to these moderate pledges. Instead, they expanded COBRA subsidies, funneling tens of billions of dollars to health insurance corporations that are already making record profits as they jack up premiums and increasingly deny claims.

Steven is a champion for environmental justice and human rights. His trial for a misdemeanor contempt charge (that has resulted in him enduring over 600 days of house arrest) will begin 5/10.
Steven’s real “crime” was taking on Big Oil and winning a $9.5b judgment for the indigenous people of Ecuador whose lives and lands have been destroyed by Chevron.
Throughout the day members of the new #PeoplesParty Advisory Council have been posting videos announcing why they have partnered with us to help build a major new party.

...just as they did with Wallace. The DNC controls the rules of the convention! As we have already seen, they can ignore, change, or eliminate their own rules at any time.
✔ 2. If they really wanted to keep progressives, they would do away with superdelegates altogether...
... They would not have passed the rules they did in June which enable one person, Tom Perez, to disqualify someone for not being a "faithful" Democrat.
✔ 3. The DNC's new loyalty oath rule is potentially more effective than superdelegates in blocking progressives...
