These states need people protesting and carrying signs, they need to make changes in each city and the public needs to be aware how these animals are dying..it needs to be put in their face because they don't want to know because you have to ask for more taxes. Many of these states just don't have the $$$ or no one is holding them accountable.

A hugh letter writing campaign can be started but from people that don't live in the state they will be thrown away...the political world doesn't care unless it gets them revoted every year.

I don't know how many laws I have seen shot down because one group has a bigger lobby to stop laws that can save animals. I have seen it here on YT when it comes to breeding...It is everyone's rights...but who pays the price.
I'm not even sure many people are aware of it. At least we can make people aware that this happens. I would be willing to pay a higher licensing fee to ensure dogs will be put to sleep by injection instead of gas.
