Animal Issues

60. ANIMAL WELFARE

Animals deserve meaningful protection from deliberate cruelty and severe neglect.

Strengthen enforcement against:

• Intentional torture

• Organized animal fighting

• Serious neglect

• Deliberate abuse

Protect service animals and household pets.

Animal-welfare laws should punish genuine cruelty without unnecessarily criminalizing responsible:

• Pet ownership

• Farming

• Ranching

• Hunting

• Veterinary care
