Protect Greyhound Racing and Sustain Thousands of Jobs

The issue

Greyhound racing, a historic sport, is currently under threat, putting thousands of jobs and businesses at risk. These include trainers, owners, kennel staff, and other directly affiliated workers, as well as non-direct businesses including local vendors and hospitality services. In Florida, for instance, the ban on this sport resulted in an estimated loss of 3,000 jobs (source: Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation). Greyhound racing also plays a considerable role in the economy, contributing over $500 million annually in the United States alone (source: American Greyhound Council). This petition calls for the protection of greyhound racing, recognizing its cultural significance, its economic contributions, and the livelihoods it supports. By supporting this, we are standing against job loss, business closure, and economic instability. Stand with us. Sign this petition to protect greyhound racing.
