| Subject: Good for them: Protesters Collect Secret Cash to Oppose Fur Ban Proposed in California Wed Jul 10, 2019 11:05 pm | |
| The fur industry is relying on a small phalanx of vocal supporters who have rallied across the country to prevent a ban on fur products, often inflaming the debate with accusations of hypocrisy and racism. Many of the impassioned defenders of fur hats and mink coats, however, have received undisclosed financial support for their activism.

Many of the same individuals appeared at another hearing before the California Senate Natural Resources Committee last month.
