Everyday countless animals are killed, tortured, mutilated, overbred and neglected. They are helpless and innocent. In the state of Florida, animal abuse is a misdemeanor. Animals are not our property. Since they can't speak for themselves, they need people to fight for them. My goal is to create harsher punishments for animal abusers. When nothing is done to stop the abuse, it will continue forever. Lawmakers need to help put an end to this. Please be a voice for the voiceless!
