One Million Dollars + EACH YEAR!

Below are the areas that need your support for the upcoming spay/neuter bill.  Please call your legislators, write them or meet with them if you can to tell them kindly that our state needs more funding for spay and neuter. Once the session starts it will be harder to reach them, so start now if you can!  Animal Protection Voters is spearheading this effort. We are so, so lucky to have them in our state. If you want more details on the bill and how it works please go to Animal Protection Voters website. If you need help finding your legislators go here.
