Urge the Senate to Protect Animals Impacted by the Farm Bill

NOTHING NEEDED HERE

The House of Representatives recently passed a Farm Bill containing the dangerous EATS Act (or “Save Our Bacon”)—a provision that jeopardizes state laws banning the cruel confinement of hens, mother pigs, and calves.

The battle now moves to the Senate. The Agriculture Committee is beginning deliberations on the Farm Bill, and as a member of this committee, your Senator has the power to keep this harmful language out of the Senate draft.

Your Senator needs to hear from you now! Please take the steps below:

1. Confirm your Senator is on the Committee: Check the official Senate Agriculture Committee Membership list here. *Note: Some states have two Senators on the committee—if yours does, please call both!

2. Make the call: If your Senator is listed, dial (202) 224-3121 to be connected to their office.

What to say: “My name is [Name] and I’m a constituent calling to urge the Senator to keep the dangerous EATS Act, also known as the “Save Our Bacon” Act, out of the Farm Bill. This is an incredibly important issue to me as a voter. Thank you.”

Subject From a Constituent: Keep the EATS Act OUT of the Farm Bill!

Message

I’m writing as your constituent to urge you to protect farmed animals impacted by the Farm Bill and ensure existing animal protection measures remain in place.
Specifically, I am asking you to keep any language from the EATS/Save Our Bacon Act OUT of the Senate’s version of the bill. Section 12006 of the House bill directly threatens states' rights by allowing Congress to override local laws that protect citizens, animals, and the environment.
Animal protection is a major priority for me, and I urge you to use this opportunity to improve the welfare of billions of animals and help build a more humane food system. I count on your leadership to ensure the Senate rejects the EATS Act.
Thank you.

Sincerely,

[First Name] [Last Name]
