Even though it causes animals’ bodies to suffer tremors, lesions, and deterioration, elevates consumers’ heart rates, and harms the environment — the FDA has approved ractopamine for use and has been estimated in 60-80 percent of all pigs raised for food in the U.S. Join thousands calling on the FDA to ban this har

This shocking legislation would make it harder to rescue neglected horses, weaken cruelty investigations, and could even condemn injured horses to death if their veterinary care exceeds $500. Horses’ lives are on the line. Urge Governor Ayotte to veto HB 1766 now.
