Another big win in the courts preserving CA's Prop 12 farm animal cruelty law! Pork producers lose again-their 3rd lawsuit-trying to overturn it. Says a lot how the pork industry fights even modest standards allowing mother pigs to turn around. agri-pulse.com/articles/1636…
Eggcelent news! Nevada will soon be the ninth US state to mandate cage-free eggs production and sales, well ahead of the flock. Special thanks to Chair @HowardWattsNV, @rattijulia & @DallasHarrisNV! #nvleg

Nevada's about to take a big step forward in protecting captive exotic animals! Thanks to @Ohrenschall4NV, @HowardWattsNV, @fabiandonate, and of course the OG bill sponsor @Cohen4AD29 for getting SB 344 through both houses #nvleg

Congratulations to this beautiful coalition of organizations that made this happen, and thank you from Nevada to every NM lawmaker who voted to pass #RoxysLaw. #NMpol #nvleg
"Roxy's Law" (SB 32) has just been signed by Governor Lujan Grisham! It's with tremendous gratitude that we acknowledge every citizen activist, every trap victim who has had the courage to come forward & share his/her stories, & every elected official who voted for this bill.

Shelters & rescues are struggling to care for their pets right now, but you can foster a pet while you’re at home or better yet - adopt! Find a shelter that needs you to #StayHomeAndFoster or #AdoptPureLove at theshelterpetproject.org @shelterpets

Fact: people participate in wildlife killing contests solely for the joy of shooting animals There is no "preservation" benefit to them. @NvDOW Director Tony Wasley should refer to his scientific training before making statements like this:
