NJ Legislature - Help Keep These Animals Alive


NJ Legislature - Help Keep These Animals Alive
The Issue
S-1479, which is sponsored by Republican State Senator Jennifer Beck, would require higher education institutions and research facilities that use cats and dogs for research to offer the animals to rescue centers for adoption.
Research animals that do not pose health risks should have an opportunity to receive a forever home and forever family
Regardless of what might think about animal testing and research, it is extremely immoral to use these animals for our convenience only to later euthanize them when their services are no longer needed. That is just wrong.
Senate President Sweeney and Assembly Speaker Prieto should push for the passage of this bill and the head of the Higher Education Committee, Senator Cunningham, should bring this bill up for a vote and have it clear the senate committee.
