History for Florida greyhounds

Dear Friends,
 
A few hours ago Senator Tom Lee filed a Constitutional Amendment to phase out greyhound racing in Florida. This historic proposal is the first official attempt to end greyhound racing in the Sunshine State!​

Senator Tom LeeThe Amendment will gradually phase out commercial dog racing over three years, and eventually end the state mandate for greyhound racing. In order to pass, the Amendment will first have to be approved by the Florida Constitution Revision Commission. If the CRC gives it a green light, the humane proposal would then appear on the 2018 statewide ballot.​

 

Please take a moment to thank Senator Lee for supporting the greyhounds. He can be reached at lee.tom@flsenate.gov.

Tell Senator Lee how grateful you are for his leadership. If you have a rescued greyhound, consider sending him a photograph of your four-legged friend.​

Right now, a racing greyhound dies every three days at a Florida dog track. Thousands of dogs endure lives of confinement, female greyhounds are given anabolic steroids, and racing dogs are fed a diet based on dangerous “4-D” meat. This is the first opportunity to end this cruel industry forever. Let’s join together and make it happen!​

For the greyhounds,
