Response to Crystal Heath's FOIA request
Millions of our tax dollars are being used by the USDA to cover the cost of bird flu outbreaks caused by the reckless greed of egg and chicken producers. Many of them are owned by the ultra-rich.
Our hard-earned dollars go to sanitize factory farms, kill millions
of birds, dump the dead in mass graves, and even cover the cost of
purchasing new chicks from the hatcheries!
The chart above reflects USDA data obtained from Crystal Heath's
FOIA requests and represents the top 20 bird flu bailouts and the
amounts they received between Jan 1, 2020, and May 5th, 2023.
