HORSES ON THE HILL: CALL TO ACTION FOR HORSES

12th, July 2009

The Animal Welfare Institute and The Humane Society of the United States are sponsoring an all day effort to lobby Congress in support of the Conyers-Burton Prevention of Equine Cruelty Act, H.R. 503 in the House of Representatives, and S.B. 727 in the U.S. Senate.

If you can attend, schedule a meeting on July 14th between 11 am and 4 pm. with your U.S. representative and 2 U.S. senators. You can ask to meet with each of them personally, but meeting with the animal staffer for each is very beneficial. Go here to find your representative and here to find your senators. For more information on events scheduled that day including a briefing by Sen. Mary Landrieu, the bill's Senate sponsor, visit http://www.horsesonthehill.org/
