To New York State Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie

<h3>I urge you to support Assembly Bill A888 to end New York’s cruel pheasant breeding program. This outdated practice wastes $1.4 million annually to raise birds as defenseless targets for hunting, with most dying from starvation, freezing, or predators shortly after release.</h3> <h3>This is not conservation—it’s state-sponsored cruelty. Let’s redirect these funds to ethical, effective wildlife protection efforts. Please support A888 and help New York lead with compassion and common sense.</h3>
