No Crates for the Garden State
We, the undersigned, believe that humane treatment of animals must supercede politics. We therefore urge you to sign bill S 1921 which would ban the use of cruel sow gestation crates in the Garden State.
Why is this important?
In June, S 1921 passed the Assembly by a margin of 60-5 votes, and by the Senate 29-4, but Governor Chris Christie vetoed the legislation. Polls show that nearly 90% of New Jersey residents would like to see sow gestation crates abolished. The overwhelming support for the elimination of sow gestation crates must be acknowledged and signed into law now.
