The President of the National Education Association is responding to the White House's newly releasing rules related to the nation’s first federal school "voucher–style program". It's set to begin next year.  Part of the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” and under the Educational Choice for Children Act. It's supposed to operate as a tax-credit program where parents/caregivers can receive up to $1,700 in credits for donating to nonprofit scholarship-granting organizations but is also criticized for the impact on public schools and specific communities.

Guest: Princess Moss, President the National Education Association. 

The vast majority of meat in the United States is factory farmed.

Factory farmed is defined as the practice of concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs).

Typically, these are environments where animals are raised for food in confined, cramped, and mostly indoor settings.

It is controversial and raises a lot of opposition in terms of ethics and the treatment of the animals.

According to U-S Department of Agriculture data reviewed by the Sentience Institute ... that figure is estimated at 99 percent.

A new three-part series, "One Table," by the animal advocacy group Compassion in World Farming features a Bluffton, Georgia farmer who has moved away from the practice.

 

Guest: Leah Garces a Decatur, Georgia based advocate and global ambassador for Compassion in World Farming talks about the series and the mission of Compassion in World Farming.
