Make sure animal abusers never get a chance to abuse again

In the U.S., it's still completely legal for an animal abuser to work in a shelter. Sign to make sure convicted animal abusers never have a chance to abuse again! Sign Now Dear friends, In 2018, the New York state Senate approved a measure making it a class-A misdemeanor for an individual convicted of animal cruelty to ever have employment working with animals. But the truth is, this should be a law across the nation. With your help, we can make it happen. Sign the petition to make sure no animal abuser can work at an animal shelter ever again! This new law isn't just for the animals' sakes; It is well known that there is a strong connection between animal cruelty, child abuse, domestic violence and many other crimes. It is astonishing that it is still perfectly legal for someone convicted of animal abuse to work in a shelter, humane society or a pound. This is such an obvious setting for them to abuse again. We must prevent people intent on hurting animals from having such easy access to them! Please sign to tell the U.S. Congress to pass a law making it illegal for a known animal abuser to ever work with animals. Thank you for all that you do,   Andrew M. The Care2 Petitions Team P.S. A law protecting innocent animals from a known abuser should be a no-brainer for Congress. Please sign the petition to protect the animals!
