URGENT: Your Help Needed to Protect Pets in This Year's Farm Bill
Your Help Needed to Protect Pets in This Year's Farm Bill
The Farm Bill comes up every five years or so in Congress, and historically has been a vehicle for numerous animal protection measures.

This year, the Israel-Doyle Amendment has been introduced to prohibit the use in research of dogs and cats obtained from random source dealers, who may steal pets and fraudulently obtain them through “free to good home” ads. It would also ban the use of live animals in sales demos of medical devices.

TAKE ACTION
Please make a brief, polite phone call to your U.S. Representative to urge support for the Israel-Doyle Amendment to protect pets. You can reach your Representative by calling the Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121.

After you make your phone call, fill in and submit the form on the right to automatically send an email to your Representative to reiterate your support for this amendment to help animals.
