This is big—the introduction of the bill in both chambers doubles its chances of success. Now is the time to take action.

As a constituent, your voice matters most to your elected officials. Reach out to your senators now and urge them to co-sponsor the Safe Line Speeds During COVID-19 Act to protect workers, animals, and consumers.

High-speed slaughter lines make it difficult for workers to ensure that animals are completely unconscious before slaughter. As a result, millions of animals face unimaginable suffering during the slaughter process. Also, slower lines help workers social distance, reducing the spread of COVID-19 in nearby communities. By speaking up, you’re helping create a more compassionate food system.

Thank you.

Sincerely, AJ Albrecht Director of Government Affairs
