What are the medical professionals at Cheyenne Regional Medical Center thinking by sponsoring the Cheyenne Frontier Days Rodeo? A rodeo considered by some to be the most brutal and deadly rodeo in the world. You would think medical professionals would see enough injuries, disease and death already. So why would they give money to support even more? Ask Dr. John Lucas, the CEO below.
At a time when soaring health-care costs are impacting all Americans and with Wyoming residents being hit especially hard, how can Cheyenne Regional Medical Center see fit to spend money supporting this animal abuse?
For a company that claims to have the very highest ethical standards, they sure are supporting some pretty horrific treatment of animals. All for nothing but some dubious "entertainment".
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
Please contact Cheyenne Regional Medical Center and tell them that as long as they support animal abuse, you will not do business with them. Tell them that a company that truly lived up to "the highest ethical standards" would not give money to support the injuring and killing of animals for fun. Urge them to join the ranks of ethical businesses that have stopped their sponsorships of rodeos like Starbucks Coffee, Choice Hotels, Southwest Airlines, and others.
