Bill overview
The Greyhound Protection Act of 2023 seeks to end commercial greyhound racing, live lure training, and open field coursing in the United States. It aims to improve the welfare of greyhounds, who often suffer injuries and are kept in poor conditions, and addresses concerns about the use of live bait animals. The bill prohibits various practices associated with these activities, including betting on greyhound races and the sale/transport of greyhounds for racing purposes. It also seeks to strengthen enforcement of existing animal welfare laws.
