Remove all USDA inspectors from slaughter and dairy facilities in states that have passed or will pass Ag-Gag legislation!

The Issue

Jailing a whistleblower who reports criminal animal abuses is just wrong.  The fear of being caught on camera is a great deterant and should be increased...NOT OUTLAWED!  Obviously USDA inspectors are not doing their jobs and are turning their heads to such abuses as have recently been reported.  

Very few citizens in these states support these heinous laws being pushed by lobbyists for the commercial interests.  They, like us, detest such behavior.  The Humane Methods of Slaughter Act prohibits inhumane treatment of animals in these facilities but Federal Employees are turning a blind eye.

The threat of a shutdown of these facilities in states that politicians have overruled the people by passing laws making it illegal for an undercover investigator to shine a light on the truth will stop and get such legislation repealed.

It is your duty to uphold the laws against animal abuse.  If USDA inspectors can't do the job then it becomes the publics right.  The sources of our food are of great importance.  We should know if downed and sick animals are still being slaughtered and entering our food chain.  It's against the law!

Your cooperation is expected and appreciated!

WE THE PEOPLE!
