Campaign victories
Fur trade
In 2021, we helped pressure Neiman Marcus, Oscar de la Renta, and Yves Saint Laurent to stop selling fur. Currently, we are working to end the sale of fur at Louis Vuitton.
Foie gras
ACT worked in a nation-wide campaign to get Hai Hospitality to permanently cease its sale of foie gras. No longer will ducks be violently force-fed and given fatty liver disease for any of Hai Hospitality's restaurants.
Slaughterhouses
ACT partnered with Slaughter Free Cities to pressure Strauss Meats to cancel the construction of a slaughterhouse in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. As a result, the company announced they would no longer be building the slaughterhouse in Wisconsin or anywhere else.
Circuses
ACT was able to help pressure circuses like Ringling Brothers and Universoul to eliminate the use of animals in their acts.
Vivisection
In 2022, ACT helped free golden retrievers who were being forcibly given muscular dystrophy at Texas A&M.
ACT championed and won a 4-year battle to end pound seizure in Dallas (the practice of selling dogs and cats from city shelters to research labs).
Companion Animal Protection
ACT got a Dallas city ordinance passed banning the sale of dogs and cats in pet stores. Petland was selling dogs from cruel breeders instead of helping shelter dogs and cats who are already in need of forever homes. But not any more.
