Contact Your Minneapolis City Council Member

If you live in Minneapolis, encourage your politicians to pass important changes to the existing city code that would allow only animal-free circuses to perform in Minneapolis. YOU must let them know this issue is vital. If they get more correspondence from the opposition, they may not pass the ordinance. If you’ve not yet contacted the City Council- now is the time!! If you have already contacted them, they need to hear from you again- especially now.

Your Message

Hello Council Member/Mayor___________. My name is ________, and I live in ward___in Minneapolis. I am calling you to urge you to support the Animal Protection Amendment, which will prohibit wild animal circuses from performing in Mpls. This issue is important to me, and I will be watching it closely with the next election in mind. Please vote ‘yes’ to end the public safety risks and cruelty in wild animal circuses.

After you’ve sent them a letter, call them and follow up with an email! Scroll down for your Council Member's phone number and email address.
Then tell 3 of your friends who live in Minneapolis to do the same. We absolutely need to overwhelm them with letters and phone calls right now. This is our shot- please don’t put it off even until tomorrow! Once you’ve sent letters and called, please let us know you’ve done so, so we can record the support- email us at info@crymn.org to let us know. If you get a response from a Council Member, please also forward that to us.

Circus Reform Yes does not endorse any particular politician. For more information on circus animal legislation in Minneapolis, please contact info@crymn.org
