Come January, it will be illegal to conduct undercover investigations to expose animal cruelty at factory farms or slaughterhouses in North Carolina. Clearly, North Carolina lawmakers don’t want to stop criminal animal cruelty; they just want to stop people from finding out about it.





By bowing to the factory farming industry, lawmakers in North Carolina have not only let down their constituents who overwhelmingly opposed this ag-gag law, but have also virtually guaranteed the perpetuation of criminal animal abuse in the state. As the Daily Journal pointed out in its scathing editorial, “Sunlight is the best disinfectant.” Unfortunately, North Carolina’s factory farmers will now be allowed to operate in the shadows—torturing animals under the dark cloak of ag-gag.





The good news is that each of us can cast a vote against animal cruelty every time we sit down to eat. By choosing humane vegetarian alternatives to meat, milk, and eggs we ensure that our money doesn’t support this cruel and corrupt industry.
