Victoria Ansaldo Urgent! Dangerous Bill Would Gut Animal-Protection Laws The U.S. House of Representatives passed a version of the Farm Bill that includes the dangerous King Amendment—a measure that would force states to allow cruelly produced meat, eggs, and dairy products to cross their borders from other states even if they have been banned. (For example, California could be forced to allow foie gras into the state even though the vile product has been banned there.) This amendment is a desperate attempt by agricultural giants to fight state-level animal-protection laws that have been used to prosecute cruelty. The Farm Bill is currently under review by a joint congressional committee, which has the authority to remove the King Amendment. Please fill out the form below to urge your U.S. representative to oppose the King Amendment to the Farm Bill. And please pass this on to friends, family members, coworkers, neighbors, and everyone you know who cares about animals! https://secure.peta.org/site/Advocacy?cmd=display&page=UserAction&id=4843&utm_campaign=0713+King+Ammendment+AA&utm_source=PETA+E-Mail&utm_medium=Alert
