Have you ever thought “there oughta be a law” to protect animals? Well, now is your chance to make your idea reality! I'd like to invite you to participate in the Humane Society Legislative Fund's "There Oughta Be a Law" contest to help protect animals. Submit your idea today for a new federal bill to help animals!
A blue-ribbon panel of experts will select the winning idea based on its merit and viability for passage into a new federal law, and the winner will then be announced at the next Party Animals -- our nationwide, house party event -- on October 25. Join the party and you will be the first to know the winner! Let us know if you're interested in hosting a party.
The winner will receive a trip to Washington, DC, to meet with me and the rest of the HSLF staff, and to lobby federal lawmakers to gain support for their winning idea.
The contest ends at midnight EDT on October 5, 2009. Submit your idea for a new federal bill today!
Thanks for all you do for animals!
Sincerely,
Mike Markarian
President
Humane Society Legislative Fund
