This should be the easiest vote in the world: Protect dogs, cats, and other animals from cruelty.

But unbelievably, Republican leaders keep blocking, weakening, or voting against laws that would stop horrific abuse — including laws protecting dogs from torture, neglect, and violent mistreatment.
Add your name: Demand that Republicans to stop blocking animal-cruelty laws and start protecting, not abusers.
Here's a sample of what Republicans have done:
- Blocked stronger penalties for dogfighting, leaving law enforcement with weaker tools to dismantle abuse rings.
- Opposed basic protections like anti-tethering laws, which simply prevent dogs from being left outside in extreme heat, blizzards, or hurricanes.
- Fought animal-abuser registry bills, which would stop known abusers from adopting or buying more dogs.
This is not about "limited government."
This is not "protecting freedoms."
This is protecting abusers — at the expense of innocent dogs and cats.
Americans overwhelmingly support strong anti-cruelty laws to protect dogs and cats. Republican officials should too.
Add your name: Tell Republicans to stop blocking animal-cruelty laws, stop protecting abusers, and stand with animals — not cruelty.
