"winnings" news and stories

Last week, eight workers at a ConAgra pork processing facility in Lincoln, Nebraska, won $365 million in a Powerball drawing. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) recently contacted the eight winners and asked them to donate a small share of their winnings to improving the lives of pigs that have been rescued from slaughterhouses or 4-H fairs. PETA argues that pigs are what formed the livelihood of the workers and that the animals should be re-payed somehow.
