Please, take 1 minute to help puppies ...

[At puppy mills, profits come first and dogs come last.]( [Humane Society Legislative Fund]( [Three pups locked behind bars inside of a puppy mill.]( [Tell Congress: Pass the Better CARE for Animals Act to save puppies’ lives!]( [Take Action]( Friend, Right now, tens of thousands of dogs across the country are languishing in puppy mills. Many will spend their entire lives stacked in dirty, rusty cages, never feeling the grass beneath their paws or the kind touch of a human hand. The puppies bred in these places are often starved of attention and denied necessary veterinary care. Many lack access to clean water, appropriate shelter from the environment and sanitary living quarters. When animals face cruelty, they can’t speak for themselves. That’s why suffering dogs and puppies need people like YOU to step up and fight. The Better CARE for Animals Act (H.R. 5041/S. 2555) would hold puppy mills regulated by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and other regulated facilities like roadside zoos and research labs, accountable for the way they treat the animals in their care by providing the Department of Justice with more enforcement tools under the Animal Welfare Act. [Add your name now to demand this bill passes quickly!]( [Take Action]( There are hundreds of abusive and inhumane puppy mills all around the country that continue to violate the Animal Welfare Act, but due to the lack of enforcement by the USDA, these businesses continue to operate. This continuous suffering is unacceptable, and these animals deserve faster intervention. Your voice can help to change the system by urging your legislators to support the Better CARE for Animals Act. This important bill will give the DOJ the tools to work with the USDA to shut down puppy mills that repeatedly violate the AWA. By allowing the DOJ to step in earlier, it can save the lives of animals before it is too late. [Act now: Urge your legislators to take action today and pass the Better CARE for Animals Act.]( Thank you, [Sara Amundson Signature] Sara Amundson President Humane Society Legislative Fund [Donate Now]( [Humane Society Legislative Fund]( 1255 23rd Street, NW, Suite 455 | Washington, DC 20037 [Donate]( | [Contact]( | [Privacy]( | [Blog]( [HSLF Facebook Logo]( [HSLF Twitter Logo]( [HSLF Youtube Logo]( © 2024 Humane Society Legislative Fund (HSLF) | All Rights Reserved This message was sent to {EMAIL}.
