Stop Cruelty to Geese in New York
Contact your State Assemblymembers Today

A bill has been introduced in the New York legislature to ban the force-feeding of geese for the production of foie gras, in which a long pipe is inserted into the goose's esophagus and compressed air is used to force excessive amounts of food into the animal. This process leads to the swelling of the animal's liver, causing it to expand up to 12 times its normal size, and often causing internal organs to rupture leading to death of the animal. New York has one of the country's two main centers for producing this inhumane delicacy (the other is California).

Please contact your New York State Assemblymember and ask them to "Please support A. 2689 to ban the cruel force-feeding of geese." To find out who your Assemblymember is and how to contact them, type your zipcode into the NY Assembly website or ask us at [email protected].
