Wayne Hsiung is an attorney who has led teams that have investigated and rescued animals from animal-abusing enterprises across the nation – while challenging unconstitutional “ag gag” laws in the process. Recently he served as the lead counsel in two “right to rescue” trials in which activists were acquitted after being charged for giving aid to sick and dying animals in factory farms, garnering much media attention. Wayne studied law and economics at the University of Chicago. He taught at Northwestern School of Law, and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where he was awarded a National Science Foundation Graduate Fellowship. He is co-founder of The Simple Heart Initiative and Direct Action Everywhere. In 2018, Science Magazine presented a groundbreaking environmental assessment that adopting a plant-based diet is “probably the single biggest way to reduce your impact on planet Earth.” In the 5 years since, more evidence has accumulated showing the devastating impacts of livestock on climate due to methane going into the atmosphere.
