Even in August, animals continue to suffer, and their voices need to be heard. We urge @vonderleyen to prioritize the appointment of an EU Commissioner for Animal Welfare. Because compassion doesn't take a vacation.

Why appointing a Commissioner for Animal Welfare is crucial. Read the article published in EU Observer. https://t.co/I8CHwq38nG

Ms. Von der Leyen,
It's time to listen to the voice of Europeans. A remarkable 70% of EU citizens are calling for the appointment of an EU Commissioner for Animal Welfare. This need is clear, and the time to act is now. @vonderleyen https://t.co/sl6w4WBp7x
The establishment of an EU Commissioner for #AnimalWelfare is a crucial step towards ensuring consistent and comprehensive protection for animals across Europe. This role would unify our efforts and amplify our impact on policies and regulations.
