Rise Against are known for their liberal politics. Moreover, they endorse the Punkvoter website, which is a liberal site for punks.

All of the group's members are strict vegetarians (as stated in an online interview that also talks about Joe's love of pizza) and active supporters of PETA.

Their video for the single "Ready to Fall" addresses environmental degradation and its effect on animals, as well as animal cruelty inherent to factory farming and sport hunting.

The group has called the video the most important video Rise Against has ever made.

The Director's Cut of the video was first made available to a PETA website.
