We have a long way to go until animals are fully protected under the legal system as they deserve, but as this year’s ALDF Rankings Report shows, step by step, we as a nation are improving how the law treats animals.

Another demonstration of why the Big Cat Public Safety Act is so important! This important legislation provides a clear framework for protecting big cats in the U.S. who have been vulnerable to the perils of private ownership.

Great news! We are encouraged to see support for the legislation from both chambers of Congress and hope the President moves quickly to sign this bipartisan bill into law.

Had a productive meeting with NY Assembly member, Linda B. Rosenthal “the #OriginalRosenthal”, discussing her many animal welfare bills as well as ALDF's priorities. Can't wait for the new 2023 legislative session!

We are very sad to report that Ryder, the emaciated horse who collapsed in NYC while pulling a carriage, has died 💔 Help us make Ryder's tragic death the last one. Sign our petition to the New York City Council calling for a ban on this abusive industry: aldf.org/NYC.

This should be yet another wake-up call for legislators to stop putting animal agriculture’s corporate interests in front of constituents’ constitutional rights and the public’s interests in protecting animals and the environment. 👏
