An open letter to Senator Feinstein
Race fans, if you are a California resident, please consider emailing Senator Feinstein your thoughts on horse racing as a valued industry. The Senator has been receiving information from opponents that will affect the future fate of Santa Anita. Please contact @ Senator Feinstein
Below is a letter skillfully written by horse owner and member of the ‘We Support Horse Racing’ movement, Karen Gentry.
