Washington DC- Today at 12 noon FARM staff and volunteers provided a much-needed voice for chickens and other animals slaughtered for food in the nation's capital on World Farm Animals Day (Gandhi's birthday).

We gathered in protest of the National Chicken Council's 54th annual conference at the Fairmont Hotel in Washington DC, which brings together the most heinous chicken industry leaders.

This included the heads of the three largest chicken killing operations: Clint Rivers of Pilgrim's Pride, Dick Bond of Tyson's Foods, and Jim Perdue of Perdue Farms.
