Proclamations
Each year, we
urge governors and mayors across
the U.S. to support a healthy,
plant-based diet by proclaiming
March 20th the Great American
Meatout. Click

proclamation text.*
This page contains
a detailed listing of supporting
governors and mayors since 1985,
and a few sample proclamations.
The proclamations encourage residents
to explore a wholesome, nonviolent
diet of vegetables, fruits, and
whole grains.
