Ten U.S. states and the European Union have already outlawed gestation crates. Similarly, nine U.S. states have banned veal crates. Polling has shown that 93% of New Jersey voters support a ban on this cruel extreme confinement of mother pigs. New Jersey should become the next state to ban gestation crates and veal crates.

Please make a brief phone call to Speaker Craig Coughlin (732-855-7441) and politely urge him to post A5236 for an Assembly Judiciary Committee hearing. You can simply say, "As a New Jersey resident, I am calling to ask you to ban the cruel caging of farm animals in New Jersey by posting A5236 for a committee hearing as soon as possible."

Then click through START WRITING to send Speaker Craig Coughlin an email to respectfully request he allow A5236 to be posted in the Assembly Judiciary Committee. Please make sure your contact information is accurate.
