<p>The U.S. Congress is back in action this week, and a number of important animal protection policy reforms to stop the worst cruelties are on the agenda. <br /><br />Recent events such as the chimpanzee attack in Connecticut and raids of puppy mills from coast to coast -- as well as ongoing abuses like the fraudulent selling of animal fur advertised as "fake" and the export of horses to Canada and Mexico to be slaughtered for food -- have made it more critical than ever that our laws protect animals from abuse and harm.</p>
<p>Today, I invite you to take the first step toward ensuring the humane treatment of all animals.</p>
<p>Recognizing that all animals are defenseless without strong laws to protect them, we created the Humane Society Legislative Fund (HSLF) in 2004. <strong>The organization's goal? To get state and federal laws passed that protect animals from the worst abuses.</strong> HSLF also works to educate the public about animal protection issues and to support humane candidates for office.<br /><br /><a href="https://community.hsus.org/campaign/HSLF_sign_the_pledge_2009?rk=H738M%5fEqcVZlE">https://community.hsus.org/campaign/HSLF_sign_the_pledge_2009?rk=H738M%5fEqcVZlE</a><br /><br />Sign the Pledge for Stronger Humane Laws</p>
<p><strong>Sign the pledge today!&nbsp;You'll join tens of thousands of others who support stronger animal&nbsp;protection&nbsp;laws&mdash;and then&nbsp;receive alerts from the Humane Society Legislative Fund about how you can help animals through the legislative and political process.</strong></p>
<p>After you sign the pledge, the HSLF will periodically send you emails about how you can&nbsp;help. After all,&nbsp;taking action&nbsp;is a critical part of getting humane laws enacted&mdash;and your legislators want to hear from you. Of course,&nbsp;you&nbsp;can easily unsubscribe at any time from HSLF emails, just by following the link included in each email. Thank you!</p>
