Kentucky Senate Bill (SB 47)  

Slated for Vote This Afternoon! Final Senate Push 

SB 47, the live stock share bill, will most likely be voted on this afternoon by the Kentucky Senate. SB 47 bars interference in private, shared ownership of animals and whatever products that shared ownership produces, creating new economic opportunities for farmers while helping consumers access the food of their choice from the farmer of their choice raised according to the standards of their choice.

                 

The bill has faced significant opposition from big-ag interests in the Commonwealth, who have vowed to use "every political tool" they have to oppose the bill.

 

YOUR IMMEDIATE HELP IS NEEDED!

 

Big-ag doesn't think you will care enough to call, lets prove them wrong!

FOR THOSE OUTSIDE KENTUCKY
Please help us reach thousands of Kentuckians.

We do not want to get Senators upset due to receiving a lot of calls outside their district.   

 

So if you are outside, then please FORWARD this to a person, business, or group in Kentucky who may be able to help us in these efforts. 

URGENT ACTION BY KENTUCKIANS
1. Please call the LRC message line and leave a message for your senator and the full senate to "Support SB 47!"

2. Please email your senator THIS MORNING asking them to support and vote yes on SB 47. Emails are important as phone calls may not reach senators before the bill is voted on this afternoon.
