OPPOSE HR 3599! Dangerous federal legislation that would wipe out animal protection laws!
Action Alert from All-Creatures.org

ACTION
Contact your Federal Representative and Senators and tell them to OPPOSE HR 3599!
HR 3599 takes away your state’s ability to enact animal welfare laws protecting animals and consumers from food produced in unsafe conditions. If passed, it would rescind previous state animal protection laws such as:
- California could be forced to allow the sale of foie gras, which is produced by force-feeding ducks and geese with pipes down their throats until their liver swells and becomes diseased.
- Georgia and other states could be compelled to allow the sale of dog meat.
- Massachusetts could be forced to allow the sale of eggs from battery-caged hens, despite an overwhelming vote by the people of the state to prohibit the sale of these products.
Rep. King tried to pass similar legislation a few years ago, and animal advocates like you fought back. Congress needs to hear from you again.
