Michiganders: Stop the Torturous Killing of Wild Canines: Urge Federal Action on the SAW

The Issue

We, the undersigned, call on our Michigan federal representatives in federal Congress to immediately address the federal Snowmobiles aren't Weapons (SAW) Bill. This vital federal legislation seeks to prohibit the abhorrent "sport" of using snowmobiles and other motorized vehicles to pursue and inflict a torturous death upon specifically coyotes and wolves for amusement. This discriminatory targeting of wild canines, driven by baseless hatred prevalent in states like Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana, is nothing less than a hate crime against wildlife and is not hunting – it is animal cruelty motivated by prejudice.

For over a year, the federal SAW bill has stalled in federal Congress. We demand our representatives recognize the urgency of this issue and take immediate federal action by bringing the federal SAW bill to their next federal congressional meeting and forming a committee at the federal level to ensure its swift progress. Join us in standing up for these targeted animals and demanding an end to this cruelty, which is nothing less than a hate crime. Sign this petition now.
