John,
Many people have found the Netflix
series “Tiger King” to be a fascinating diversion during the
COVID-19 crisis, including my family and me. But we can’t let the
bizarre human drama of this show overshadow the very real policy
issues it raises.
As the chairman of the House
subcommittee in charge of wildlife policy, I actually have a
brief cameo in “Tiger King,” where I’m shown at a hearing for the
Big Cat Public Safety Act. This bill is designed to both protect
the welfare of these animals and ensure the safety of the general
public.
I know there is a lot going on right now in our
country, but I wanted to make sure you knew about this important
issue. Please take a moment to sign this petition in support of
the Big Cat Public Safety Act. Tell my colleagues in Congress
that we need to take action to protect big cats and the
communities where they’re being held.

In some states, it’s easier to buy a
tiger than to adopt a dog from an animal shelter. And
unfortunately, this lack of regulation has led to far too many
bad actors abusing the system and threatening the well-being of
these precious animals.
Congress obviously has a lot of
front-burner issues to tackle during this pandemic but I am
hoping that once we have returned to regular business and have
addressed the public health crisis and economic calamity, we’ll
be able to pass the Big Cat Public Safety Act without delay. I
need your help to make that case.
You can help stop these cruel practices
by signing this petition right now. Tell lawmakers to vote in
favor of protecting tigers, a critically endangered species, and
other big cats.
