    They are living creatures no different to ourselves and should be afforded the right to safety from harm irrelevant of which type. They are also farmed as a staple resource that we are dependent on for nutrition so therefore should be treated as a valuable resource and asset that we need in order to survive so that makes it absolutely essentia.l

    To ensure that farmers show proof of taking measures to safeguard their livestock against disasters seems like a smart thing to do.  My question is is there not insurance that farmers can purchase that would provide compensation for livestock loss due to disasters?  If there is then before farmers get gov. asst. for livestock loss due to disaster, then they should have to prove that they had this ins. and then the gov. reimburse the difference between what the ins. pays and what the actual cost of the loss is.  Taxpayers should not be on the hook if the farmer has not taken appropriate measures to guard against livestock loss due to natural disasters.

    Please support this bill. It is the responsibility of farmers to ensure the welfare of their animals.

    Good grief.  This is nonsense and a waste of time given other matters facing us today.  How about focusing on the lunatics on the far left that have severed the brake lines as we gain speed on a downhill descent to being a third world country?

    You see what is happening to the people of East Africa as they lose their animals?

    We're stewards over animals and should do everything we can to care for them.

    farm animals, any animals, need to be treated with the same level of concern as us humans. We will ultimately be suffering more from the losses of these animals to disasters rather than taking a small hit. fewer farm animals = less produce = more expensive produce. the chicken flu was a great example. if you don't save the animals and leave them in dangerous conditions they can get sick and spread it around.

    Raise prices by requiring more farmer costs.

    This is a stupid bill. . . VOTE NO.  Written by people that have never put their hands on a cow, pig or chicken.  Farmers are already protecting their investments because THEY ARE THEIR INVESTMENTS!!!

    The more farm animals die, the less food there is avilable, which drives up pricing even more!

    yes coorporations and farmers should have disaster plans in place to protect the farm animals and they need to make sure that these steps r implmented when a disaster hits and that includes conglomerate farms as well

    How about saving humans from wanton gouging by corporate crooks - oil companies, insurance companies, practically every conglomerate out there squeezing the last drop of blood from hardworking people - and laughing their way to the bank!

    SHAME ON CONGRESS for doing NOTHING to reign in these crooks

    Yes, but start with the agricultural industrial complex. Make sure that large feed lots and chicken farms owned by conglomerates are following this before monitoring smaller farms.

    Big Ag gets away with far too much at the expense of health and the environment, so any bills like these need to be sure they are being regulated fully.

    Of course! All livestock should be protected because it's a great source of protein and nutrition.  

    I also think we need to protect these animals from Bill Gates! As he is strictly plant based food, and is promoting his own agenda over the well-being of humanity.
