Please Vote Against These Animal Abusers In Nov Or Early Voting

by A Humane Congress Thursday, Sep. 27, 2018 at 5:48 AM

Please vote out the 52 Republican senators who have a terrible record of votes for animal abuse and slaughter. Please vote out the 220 Republican House members who voted for aerial hunting in our national park. Please vote out all who vote for Donald Trump's agenda.



Every single Republican senator except the ailing Johnny Isakson (who has a terrible record regarding animals) voted to allow hunters for the 1st time into our national park wildlife refuge in Alaska. 220 Republican congresspersons listed below voted for the bill which Donald Trump quickly signed. The bill pushed by Congress' worst animal abuser Don Young of Alaska allows aerial hunting of animals, baiting of bear traps, the use of hidden snares and the murder of bear cubs and wolf puppies in their dens by stalking hunters terrorizing animals. Despite the human chauvinism of OnTheIssues org which does not list animal rights as a category on which to rate candidates, one can go to the Humane Society Legislative Fund Scorecard for senators and representatives.

http://www.hslf.org/our-work/humane-scorecard.html#.W6eszRBRd2E



Alaska

Don Young, Republican representative, has often been called the most animal abusing member of the US House.

https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2012/10/07/18723242.php



Florida

Rick Scott, like trophy hunter Ryan Zinke, tried to bring stalking hunters, cattle ranchers' cows, and tree axing for profit into the people's parks, Floridians, please vote to keep Nelson in the Senate. Scott, of the 7 gubernatorial killers (43 do not murder prisoners) has executed more than any other governor but Texecutioner Greg Abbott. Floridians please keep Nelson in the Senate. Nelson voted against the Republican plan to bring aerial hunting, bear trap baiting, and murder of bear cubs and wolf puppies into our national park in Alaska which was designed as a wildlife sanctuary.



Georgia

Senator Isakson as well as Sen Inhofe are the remaining 2 of the 4 senators who sponsored the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act AETA which criminalizes videotaping slaughterhouse, factory farm, vivisection lab abuse of animals

https://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2011/12/trust-us-legislatio/



Indiana

Indiana Republican Mike Braun has a high rating from the hunter dominated NRA, wants to further bloat the war profiteer network with increased military spending, and has been accused of overworking and underpaying his employees. He is a millionaire many times over.



Iowa

Iowa Republican congressman Steve King has defended dogfighting. That is just one of a long list of his crimes against animals.



Mississippi

The state will have 2 Senate elections in the fall.

GOP senator Roger Wicker of MS has in 2014 and 2017 voted to expand the power of the 5% of the population who hunt. Like 50 other Republican senators he voted to allow aerial hunting in our Alaska national park.

https://www .congress.gov/bill/113th-congress/senate-bill/2363

Cindy Hyde-Smith was never elected, but appointed to the Senate. She is a cattle rancher, a profiteer who sends cows to be murdered.

Rosendale is a cattle rancher who opposes all categories of abortion including rape and incest, who wants full repeal of Obamacare, opposes gay marriage. Tester refused to vote for aerial hunting and the murder of bears, wolves, and pigs in Alaska by trophy hunters. May both men follow the example of 4th generation Montana cattle rancher Howard Lyman who had spinal stem cancer and promised God he would become a vegan and promote vegan diet if her lived. Lyman and Oprah Winfrey were sued by Amarillo cattlemen twice for publicizing the widespread incidence of Mad Cow. The Amarillo men lost as the 5th Circuit ruled that the truth is not libelous.



Nebraska

Animal abusing cattle rancher Republican Sen. Deb Fischer profiteers from mammal slaughter which causes the cows agony, generates many human diseases, wastes energy and causes global climate extremes.

Congressman Jim Renacci of Wadsworth Ohio is running against incumbent Democrat Sherrod Brown. Renacci voted as did 200 other Republican congresspersons to bring aerial hunting into our national park in Alaska, to allow baiting of bear traps and the murder of bear cubs and wolf puppies by trophy hunters and others. Several countries have outlawed aerial hunting. Don Young, considered the most animal abusing member of the House of Rep., introduced the legislation, which for the first time allows stalking hunters to terrorize animals in what was designed as a wildlife sanctuary. Renacci's opponent, incumbent Sherrod Brown like EVERY

other Democrat senator or independent, voted against the brutal bill.



Renacci made millions in owning over 20 substandard nursing homes as he bilked the patients and Medicare. He has been sued for patient neglect and death.



Tennessee

Utah

Mitt Romney gave 1.9 million dollars in Burger King stock to the Mormon church which is the church most invested in animal slaughter and meat, as well as the church running the biggest calf slaughter operation in the US (Deseret in Florida). Romney as owner of IHart Radio through the sole owership of Bain Capital has profiteered from and promoted animal slaughter products. He advocated sending 50,000 more troops to Iraq (none of his own sons) both in his campaign and through the talk show hosts on his radio network.
