My fellow New Yorkers,

Did you know that Los Angeles just followed San Francisco to become the largest city in the United States to ban the sale and manufacture of fur within the city?

The unanimous city council vote set a historic precedent that a major city can take a stand against unnecessary animal cruelty — thanks in part to a Change petition signed by tens of thousands of people.

Today, you have more power than ever to get your city to do the same. The first step is starting a petition asking the great city of New York to join Los Angeles in going fur-free.
