Dear Fellow
Animal Lovers,
Help Push - Senate Bill 174 Ensure these changes are made !
Many people believe that animal abuse is considered a serious criminal offense. The Criminal Code of Ohio should be strengthened so the penalty fits the crime. It is time to stand up for
animal welfare in Ohio.
Ohio has the worst animal welfare laws in the nation. This bill seeks
to address this deficiency by strengthening the penalties for abuse
and neglect. We must send a message to would-be animal abusers that
Ohio will not tolerate these abuses.
Please sign the petition in support of Senate Bill 174 at this link:

Let the Criminal Justice Committee know the people in Ohio want animal welfare laws changed now! We strongly support the passing of S. B. 174, which would change Ohio animal welfare laws. Your support and action will greatly increase the chances of the bill passing. Encourage your friends and family to sign this petition. Please tell them to support Senate Bill 174.
