Animals Need a Voice in the White House - Sign the Petition! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Dear Friend,

Animals Need a Voice in the White House.

Protecting dogs from abuse at large-scale puppy mills. Enforcing the federal laws against animal fighting and inhumane slaughter. Defending the international ban on commercial whaling.

These are just some of the critical animal protection issues that depend on the active involvement of federal agencies -- in fact, there are 18 different agencies that oversee animal welfare! That’s why The Humane Society of the United States and Humane Society Legislative Fund are asking the Obama Administration to appoint an Animal Protection Liaison in the White House.

We need your help to urge the White House to appoint a person in the Administration who would work with the executive agencies and Congress to advance animal protection policies. Please sign the petition to urge President Obama to appoint an Animal Protection Liaison.

We have developed a change agenda for animals, which outlines 100 immediate steps the Obama Administration can take to help animals -- including millions of pets, farm animals, laboratory animals, and wildlife. With your help, we can ensure the Administration is addressing these critical animal protection issues in an ongoing and sustained way.

Sign the petition that will be delivered to the Administration to urge for an Animal Protection Liaison in the White House.
