conjunction with the annual White House Easter Egg Roll, where
2-to-6-year old children push hard-boiled eggs down a 10-yard lane
with plastic soup ladles on the White House lawn. About 20,000
people attend this event, which uses 7,000+ hard boiled eggs from
battery-caged hens. As a souvenir, each child receives a colored
wooden egg "signed" by the president.
|
Our United Poultry Concerns table will tell the truth about eggs
including the cages, debeaking, forced molting, filth, salmonella,
slaughtering, and total suffering. We will have handout literature,
posters, and a Banner: Sick Chickens Cooped in Poop! We have newly
revised handout flyers: Where Do Eggs Come From?

Please Join Us. We Need Your Help.
