Sample Letter/Fax: RE: Opposition to a ban on circuses and rodeos Dear Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors, Please do not to ban circuses and rodeos in Santa Clara County. The animal rights activists behind this ban do not speak for the majority of the American public. We wish to preserve our right to enjoy the tradition of animals in entertainment. There are laws and ordinances in place to protect animals and as long as the animals are well cared for there is no reason for a ban on circus and rodeo. Please vote no.
