Join The Petition Drive For A National Cesar Chavez Holiday

Cesar Chávez led the historic non-violent movement for farm worker rights, and dedicated himself to building a movement of poor working people that extended beyond the fields and into cities and towns across the nation. Lesser known is his passion for animal rights and  personal commitment to vegetarianism for the last 25 years of his life. IDA proudly recognized this great leader’s contribution to animal rights by awarding Cesar Chávez our Lifetime Achievement Award in 1992. The United Farm Workers (UFW) have continued Cesar's legacy by supporting pro-animal legislation. Sign the UFW's petition to honor Cesar Chávez.
