Tell WA Senators: WA supports live sheep export ban

0 people are helping.

Send a message of thanks – and reassurance – to WA Senators today

As expected, the live export lobby has mounted a 'fight-back' campaign to spook WA politicians against proceeding with the live sheep export phase-out. At times like this - a little gratitude can go a very long way! Please send a short message to your WA Labor Senators: reassure them that their community overwhelmingly supports this compassionate policy, and thank them for standing firm.

The Australian Government has introduced legislation to end the cruel live sheep export trade, after more than 60 years of operation.

In her speech tabling the Bill in the Federal Parliament, Minister Catherine King said: “Phasing out this trade marks a considerable step forward for sheep welfare, reflecting our nation’s values of compassion and ethical treatment of animals.”

Decades of investigations shining light on the suffering of sheep at sea and in importing countries – supported by persistent public advocacy – have helped us reach this historic moment. But the legislation still needs to be debated – and voted on.

As expected, the live export lobby (with help from the National Party) have intensified efforts to see this compassionate policy overturned – and they have WA Labor politicians in their sights. It’s important WA Labor Senators feel supported and appreciated – and that they know their constituents strongly support ending live sheep export.

Reassure WA Labor Senators that the community supports ending live sheep export. Express your gratitude and encourage them to stand firm on this compassionate decision.
