Petition: Tell Congress to Reject Act That Would Endanger Animal Welfare in Agriculture

There are currently no federal laws protecting farmed animals from abuse or cruelty. The only protections these sentient creatures have depend on state-level legislation.

Now, a new proposed bill — the Ending Agricultural Trade Suppression Act — would be a massive blow to hundreds of state laws that protect animal welfare. And, to make matters worse, this could indirectly harm humans, too. The bill would make it harder to protect humans from transmission of zoonotic diseases in animal agriculture, endangering human and animal lives.

Please sign this petition to tell Congress to protect animal safety and reject this old-fashioned, terrifying act!
