XPost: Good news for those who love animals
The U.S. Senate unanimously passed the Animal Fighting Prohibition Enforcement Act.
The House of Representatives passed the same bill, H.R. 137, late last month by a vote of 368 to 39. What this means is that after an almost six-year battle, the struggle to
enact meaningful federal penalties for animal fighting has passed its final congressional hurdle. The legislation now is headed to the desk of President Bush, who is expected to sign the measure into law.

Great!
Now, let's get NY to expand their felony animal cruelty statute to include ALL animals, not just companion animals.
