Take Action by July 31!

Last week, the House passed these three animal bills. Please reach out and ask your State Senator to help move the bills below for a vote!

The end of the MA legislative session is THIS Wednesday – July 31!

S. 2731/H. 4919: An Act relative to Kennel Safety — Ollie’s Law
Massachusetts currently has no state oversight of doggie daycare or boarding kennels. This legislation would require reasonable rules and regulations of these facilities, such as specifications on group sizes and supervision, minimum housing and care requirements, indoor and outdoor physical facility requirements. Many families in Massachusetts have suffered the loss or injury of a companion animal at a doggie daycare or kennel—tragedies that could be avoided by commonsense oversight of these facilities.

H. 4915: An Act relative to the use of elephants, big cats, primates, giraffes, and bears in traveling exhibits and shows
This legislation prohibits the use of elephants, big cats, primates, bears, and giraffes in traveling shows in Massachusetts. Using dangerous animals for human entertainment is not only cruel to these exotic animals, but also presents a public safety risk. Such traveling shows subject highly intelligent, social animals to abusive training and near-constant travel where they are deprived of exercise and the ability to express their most basic, natural behaviors.

H. 4911: An Act relative to animal welfare and reporting of animal cruelty, abuse or neglect
This bill will prevent dog breed as a factor to determine whether a family can adopt or foster children. It also will remove timing restrictions in the statutes that allow employees and contractors of human services agencies to report suspected animal cruelty.

Please reach out to your State Senator below and ask that they bring this legislation to the floor for a vote before July 31!
