I was shocked to learn my representative, Clyde Evans, voted against the law.

Why can’t animals get any justice in this world. What more can we do to ensure this bill passes? If these are elected officials and they care about their precious positions in the state government then i think we need to inform them under no uncertain terms that they will be voted out unless they fight for this bill and for the animals in our state. Enough is enough, do these ppl not own a dog or cat? any of them?

I hope they pass the bill. I will see about who I can send a letter to about this on your list of state reps.

Ohio is one of the worst states in passing fair and just laws to protect animals.

As an example, take a look at at the backyard breeders and puppy mills in our state. Legislation was introduced three years ago and yet legislators do nothing! Same for H.B. 55, which would revise the penalties and sentencing provisions regarding violations of the cruelty to animals statutes and to include the protection of companion animals in temporary protection orders, domestic violence protection orders, anti-stalking protection orders, and related protection orders. That was introduced over a year ago and still it is awaiting additional discussion in Committee!

(Personally, I feel H.B. 70 and 55 should be combined into one bill.)

The voters in this state need to flood the telephone and fax lines of their elected officials and request they support legislation that protects innocent animals like Nitro from the hands of sadist criminals!
