If you love horses in Texas write today!

If you live in Texas and love animals, especially horses, then you need to write your STATE SENATOR today. The Criminal Justice committee in the Texas Senate now has the power to review and alter HB 2328. This important House Bill was passed by the Texas House of Reps but unfortunately several damaging amendments were added to it. Write or call your Texas Senator and ask to change the bill back protect horses and clarify stray dogs and feral cats as animals to be protected from cruelty. Horses have been protected since 1995 but now the legislature wants to change that and lower their status of protection. We cannot allow this to happen. Please take action, do your part and help the horses and stray animals of Texas today!

The members of the committee are:
Senator John Whitmire, Sen. Kelton Seliger, Sen. John Carona, Sen. Bob Deuell, Sen. Rodney Ellis, Sen. Juan Hinojosa
