Subject: TIGHTEN RESTRICTIONS on IVORY SALES in NY and MOVE TO BAN
Dear Chair of the New York State Assembly Committee on Environmental Conservation and colleagues,
Happy new year and greetings from [Your State or Country Here]!
96 elephants are killed each day by poachers to fuel the ivory trade of which New York State represents the largest market for in the U.S. TIGHTEN RESTRICTIONS on IVORY SALES and MOVE TO BAN. The ivory trade sponsors terrorism, is killing humans and driving elephants to extinction. At the rate of one elephant killed every 15 minutes for its ivory tusks, there will be no more elephants roaming wild by 2025. You have the power to help prevent this by moving for a 100% ivory ban by making New York State ivory-free.
Thank you!
Sincerely,
[Your Name] [Your mailing address, or at least city, state, zip]

I can not believe this is still happening. Don’t you think our grand children and beyond that deserve to see what an elephant looks like without having to look at books. Not just elephants but other animals that are poached for selfish greedy needs. I’m ashamed that I have to explain to my son why animals like this are killed. We all should be ashamed
We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience..
Being special as a human does not give us the right to be arrogant, benevolent or righteous over other beings, it should enlighten us to having compassion and care for all. Lets put an end to this. Please.
