I want to share where we are right now, because you did this:

• 1,400+ supporters 🎉
• 7,478 petition views
• 62 promoters
• $685 contributed to help boost and promote this petition

And according to the dashboard, promotion alone has helped bring in hundreds of signatures

That is not small. That is a community stepping up and saying: “We refuse to accept what’s happening in LA’s shelters as normal.”

Every share, every dollar, every signature is fuel for the next step – taking this in front of LA City Council and making sure our voices are heard by the people who can actually change policy.

👉 How you can keep helping right now:

• Share the petition again
• Post it to your social media, neighborhood groups, and group chats. Many people sign the second or third time they see something.
• Ask a few people directly to sign
• A simple “Hey, this really matters to me – will you sign and share?” is incredibly powerful.
• If you’re in LA City or LA County, say so when you share

Decision-makers pay extra attention when they see their own residents speaking up.

Thank you for everything you’ve done so far – the numbers on the dashboard are real lives we’re fighting for.

We can push this system to change, but only if we keep going together. 🐶🐾
