“Proposition 2” Passed!
On November 4, Proposition 2 was approved by an overwhelming margin in California becoming a historic ballot measure to stop the inhumane confinement of animals on factory farms. Wayne Pacelle, President and CEO of The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), expresses it well by saying, "California voters have taken a stand for decency and compassion and said that the systemic mistreatment of animals on factory farms cannot continue. All animals deserve humane treatment, including animals raised for food." Proposition 2 goes into effect in January of 2015, giving factory farms six years to shift to different housing systems.

It is great news for God's Creation that Proposition 2 passed, giving hope to the billions of animals that suffer on a daily basis due to the greed of the animal agriculture industry and all those who support it. Maybe now, the people who are behind this industry will realize that there is a great deal of people who will take a stand for God's animals; and hopefully more people, upon learning of the inhumane treatment of farmed animals, will choose to adopt a plant-based diet.
