Why: To staff table, hold posters, and distribute literature
in 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 brand new handout flyers: Where Do Eggs Come
From?
Please Join Us. We Need Your Help.
Look for the Bright Blue Plastic Canopy
