SICK CHICKEN LAW

Hysterical video. Sick law Obama and Agriculture Vilasck are pushing to make chicken even less safe than it already is. I wonder if that's part of Michelle Obama's healthier eating platform?




SIGN THE PETITION:

MESSAGE

Stop Pushing the Filthy Chicken Rule

Dear [Decision Maker],

I urge you to withdraw the so-called "Modernization of Poultry Slaughter Inspection" regulation, or the "Filthy Chicken Rule," that would turn most poultry inspection over to poultry companies so that they can police themselves.

The proposed rule would decrease the number of USDA inspectors in poultry plants while increasing line speeds up to 175 birds per minute or three birds per second. In order to compensate for missed fecal contamination, the proposed rule would permit companies to use more anti-microbial chemicals to clean the poultry carcasses.

This rule will lead to unsafe food and unsafe working conditions, and will put consumer health at risk by allowing inadequate inspection of poultry. I urge you to withdraw this rule for privatizing poultry inspection.
