Feb 4th Deadline for MA Bill Survival!

Dear Friends,

Please see the message below from our Americans Against Horse Slaughter MA State Coordinator and take action for our horses.

MA State residents are asked to note the Friday 2/4 deadline for gaining cosponsors for the bill. Cosponsors are absolutely necessary for the bill's survival.
We're appealing to Massachusetts residents to call their state Reps/Senators and to be persistent in their request for cosponsoring.

Thanks for forwarding.

For the horses!

Thanks for distributing this action request to your members, this bill on Beacon Hill has
until FEBRUARY 4th to gain cosponsors for it!

1. Find your state Rep and Senator here:

2. Call their offices and ask them both to support and cosponsor SD 228 by Senator Stephen Brewer, a state bill banning horse slaughter for human consumption (and related bulk transport) in Massachusetts.

3. Politely remind your MA Rep/Senator that you are a constituent of theirs, and ask them to contact Brewer's staffer Alicia G. Bandy to sign on as a cosponsor promptly.
