\"Spending<\/strong><\/p>\n

With the 2012 budget proposal looming concerned animal lovers are being
\nencouraged by the ASPCA to give their support a bi-partisan letter that
\npledges protection for animal welfare funding. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Federal animal
\nwelfare laws depend on the government to provide the funding to pay for
\ntheir enforcement. Laws such as the Animal Welfare Act, the Animal
\nFighting Prohibition Enforcement Act, the Humane Methods of Slaughter
\nAct and the Horse Protection Act receive funding from the federal
\ngovernment. The programs are vulnerable, even though the funding is
\nrelatively small. Chris Smith (R-NJ) and Earl Blumenauer (D-OR), brought
\nforth a letter pledging that funding for animal-protection laws will
\nremain intact. <\/strong><\/p>\n

If you would like to add your voice of support to
\nthe Smith-Blumenauer letter, please do so by April 13, 2011. Action can
\nbe taken online by visiting the ASPCA action center<\/a> and filling out a simple form.<\/strong><\/p>\n
