Keep dangerous language out of the Farm Bill

UPDATE – August 6, 2026: The “Save Our Bacon” Act (SOB) was not included in the Senate Ag Committee vote. But animals still need you! The committee will meet again in September to discus the Farm Bill.

This bill is the most destructive piece of legislation for animals in U.S. history. And it could be passed by Congress in the upcoming Farm Bill. Not only would the Save Our Bacon Act wipe out animal protection laws across the country—like bans on caging pigs—it would also prevent new laws protecting farmed animals.

Animals face an uncertain future as Congress considers H.R.7567, or the current version of the Farm Bill.

Every 5 years, Congress passes the Farm Bill, a law that shapes how farm animals are treated. This year, lobbyists are pushing to strip away basic animal protections.

The House version includes the Save Our Bacon Act, which puts millions of cows, pigs, and chickens at risk of extreme suffering. The Senate version doesn’t. Now, every vote is a chance to protect animals.

What would the current Farm Bill allow?

  • Pregnant pigs would be forced back into cages so small they couldn’t even turn around or take more than a step forward or backward.
  • Hens would be confined inside so-called ‘battery cages,’ which allows them no more than a living space the size of a sheet of paper.
  • Newborn calves will live a life chained behind metal bars to prevent them from moving and keep their flesh lean for veal.
