I got this letter in an e-mail and thought I'd read it to you. New National Survey Unveiled Showing Overwhelming Support for Humanely Raised Food

WASHINGTON, D.C., November 13 – America loves Thanksgiving – the holiday that celebrates American traditions, family togetherness and gratitude for the unparalleled bounty of our great nation. As Thanksgiving approaches this year, American Humane Association went to Capitol Hill to urge Americans to set a humane table for the holidays and support humane farm practices.

Joined by the CEOs and leaders of major organizations involved in food production, as well as small, medium and large farmers and producers who have committed to raising animals humanely, one of America's most recognized award-winning top chefs, and some of the nation's foremost animal welfare pioneers, "The Humane Table" congressional briefing celebrated and gave thanks to American farmers and ranchers who not only put food on our families' tables, but who work to put the "heart" in "heartland" by providing food that is safe, abundant, affordable and humanely raised under ethical, commonsense and scientifically demonstrated standards. American Humane Association also released the "2014 Humane Heartland Farm Animal Survey" of nearly 6,000 Americans, showing overwhelming support for humanely raised foods.
