Every year, commercial shooters massacre as many as 1.5 million wild kangaroos, including 300,000 joeys, so their skins can be made into athletic shoes and other garments. The Kangaroo Protection Act (H.R. 1992) would ban the sale of any kangaroo parts in the U.S. It would close off one of the world's biggest markets for kangaroo parts and go a long way to stopping the commercial slaughter of native wildlife in the Outback.

Please contact your U.S. representative and senators today using the form below to ask them to support the Kangaroo Protection Act (H.R. 1992). When you're finished, follow up with a phone call to the Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121, give them your zip code and ask to be transferred to your representative's office. When a staffer answers, tell them you're a constituent and that you'd like them to support the Kangaroo Protection Act.
