At Farm Sanctuary’s request, Brad Pitt sent a letter to Costco CEO Craig Jelinek urging him to stop selling eggs from hens confined in tiny cages.
He joins Ryan Gosling and Bill Maher in speaking out against Costco’s support for egregious cruelty to animals.

Here’s a quote from Bruce Friedrich, Policy Director, Farm Sanctuary, who solicited Brad’s participation in the campaign:
“When Brad Pitt, Ryan Gosling, and Bill Maher all weigh in to say that cages are horribly abusive of animals and should be banned, it’s time for Costco to listen. The animal protection community is laser-focused on Costco’s support for cruelty to animals, and the issue is not going away. The company should immediately set a reasonable time frame for getting rid of cages in its supply chain.”
