Target: Jared Polis, Governor of Colorado
Goal: Support extending animal welfare rights to livestock and farmed animals.
An often overlooked and exploited sector of animals could soon find new safeguards and protections under Colorado law. While animal welfare rules cover pets in Colorado and other states, animals used in agriculture typically do not receive many, if any, of these benefits. They are therefore subject to severe abuse, assault, neglect, and mistreatment.
Colorado’s Protect Animals from Unnecessary Suffering and Exploitation (PAUSE) Act puts stringent standards of care in place for animal agriculture industries. Sexual abuse of animals, for example, would be more strictly defined. Animals would also be able to live out more of their natural lifespans. Predictably, this powerful lobby is already mounting a strong opposition to these basic safety measures.
Sign the petition below to show your support for the animals most impacted by this crucial piece of legislation.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Governor Polis,
The PAUSE Act concerning animal welfare in agriculture has stirred up quite a bit of fear-mongering and disinformation from an industry used to flexing its political muscle for its own benefit. In truth, this proposed ballot initiative would simply balance the scales for a population of animals who have historically endured some of the worst abuses under government’s unwatchful eye. The apparent witnessed assault of defenseless chickens inspired this initiative, and these animals represent just a fraction of the unchecked cruelty that takes place in U.S. agriculture daily.
Please drown out the noise and hysterics from special interests and advocate on behalf of these animals. They, like all living beings, deserve the most fundamental protections and welfare assurances.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

animal abuse is just plain sick
Agree animal abusers should be tortured then hung.
Yes you’re right they do!!!
All animal abusers globally must have the mandatory death penalty implemented. We need to unite together internationally to formulate this policy and procedure optimally.
All animal abusers globally must have the death penalty implemented and nothing less. A slow and agonising death is required for these evil cretins.
All those who treat/kill animals cruelly must be forced to suffer the same abuse – NO EXCEPTIONS …IN MY OPINION
Yes!
All eyes are on COLORADO! Governor must do his duty and the bill get passed. Animals have the right to be protected.
Stop eating animals, that’s why they are tortured and murdered to end up on your plates!if you really care-go vegan!!!death penalty for animal abusers!!!
Wish some Judge. would hear your ‘brilliant’ suggestion and put it into practice!
Jared Polis, Governor of Colorado
