Subject: Urgent- Capitol Rally
Importance: High

This past week, the legislature passed Senate Bill 113 to amend Proposition B and it’s now on the Governor Nixon’s desk. Missouri agriculture has been strongly advocating for this measure and is now urging Governor Nixon to sign it into law. It is very important we let the Governor know how vital this legislation is to Missouri agriculture.

A rally has been scheduled for 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, April 20 at the State Capitol in Jefferson City. The “Stand Up for Animal Agriculture Rally” will take place on the Capitol steps. Senator Mike Parson and other key legislators will lead the rally.

Missouri Farmers Care, a broad coalition of agriculture and allied organizations around the state, is coordinating the rally and all farmers, agribusiness partners and industry supporters are strongly encouraged to participate in Wednesday's event.

This is our chance to prove to the Governor that agriculture is united in fighting the broad agenda being advanced by the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) and its allies such as People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

We must do everything we can to show the Governor how much agriculture means to Missouri. Please do your part and be there. Share this message with your neighbors, family and friends and make plans now to be in Jefferson City Wednesday afternoon. We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday.

We’ve just learned that HSUS will be holding an anti SB 113 rally on the other side of the Capitol beginning at 4:30 pm that same day. This makes the need for a large number of participants at our rally even more important!! Please make every effort to participate!! Call 573-445-8375 or 573-289-0088 if you have any questions. Thanks. Don
