Friend,
It sounds harmless enough: the Exposing Agricultural Trade Suppression (EATS) Act. But in reality, it could lead to the suffering of millions of animals.
That’s because the EATS Act is harmful legislation designed by lawmakers more interested in removing regulations and making the big agriculture industry more profitable, than even slightly reducing the suffering of farm animals.
Friend, please join the Humane Society Legislative Fund today with your gift of $20 or more to help us stop this inhumane legislation in its tracks and fight to protect threatened animals nationwide.
Every five years, Congress considers a new Farm Bill. And if the EATS Act is included in this huge legislative package, it could wipe out years of progress we have made at the state level to help protect animals.
Because of the EATS Act’s broad language, hundreds of pro-animal state laws—like the ones that prevent the cruel confinement of egg-laying hens, mother pigs and veal calves … the abuse of dogs in puppy mills … the killing of animals for the wildlife trade … painful testing on animals … and more—could be erased!
Animals need your help! Your contribution to HSLF helps power our work on Capitol Hill to stop the EATS Act and ensure a humane Farm Bill that protects animals, as well as all our efforts to advocate for animals! So please give today.
