New York: Thank Governor Hochul for Protecting Wildlife
This action is for New York residents only.
Great news! New York’s Governor Hochul signed critical legislation (S. 4099/A. 2917) to end wildlife killing contests for coyotes, foxes, bobcats, squirrels, raccoons, crows, and other species statewide. Championed by Assemblymember Deborah Glick (D-66) and Senator Timothy Kennedy (D-63), this law prohibits events where contestants compete to kill the most animals for cash and prizes.
Please consider sending one final message thanking Governor Hochul for signing the bill into law!
