Animals cannot speak for themselves; they need a strong voice to speak up on their behalf. In the halls of Congress, the HouseCongressional Animal Protection Caucusserves as that voice.
Co-chaired by Reps. Earl Blumenauer (D-OR) and Mike Fitzpatrick (R-PA), this bipartisan caucus raises awareness of animal welfare issues in Congress and builds broad coalitions in support of common-sense animal welfare legislation. In recent years, the caucus helped pass new laws to:
close the federal loophole protecting spectators at animal fights,
ban the commerce in appalling “crush videos,” and
protect the rights of states to pass their own animal protection laws.

I wonder if some of the viewers realize
the terrible abuse of animals? Some is just to
horriffic to mention, should they not.
I Would hope viewers
take a few min. to fill out the form .
The letter is already written .
Unless we petition our Representatives to get
stricter laws for them--- the abuse continues.
Remember-----most people who kill others start
with the abuse of animals!
