There are currently no pet stores in Radnor, so no one is being put out of business.

Pet dogs & dogs in labs live very different lives. 🐶 Pet dogs often spend their days going on walks, napping & playing. 🦴 But in labs, they suffer through cruel experiments, mostly deprived of social interaction & isolated in tiny, barren cages with little space to move. 💔

🎉GREAT NEWS🎉 Tonight, the House Appropriations Committee signaled that @TheJusticeDept should increase efforts to investigate dogfighting and cockfighting operations by including language in their bill that will help law enforcement crack down on these cruel and dangerous networks. Cruelty and crime go hand in hand in organized animal fighting ventures, so we’re happy to see the inclusion of this critical language. Thank you @RepCuellar for highlighting the need to crack down on these networks and supporting the inclusion of this language in your remarks 🐾🙌 Grateful to @HouseAppropsGOP and @AppropsDems for the bipartisan support for including this important language we requested 👏👏👏

At Pennsylvania Humane Lobby Day, we honored @SenMastriano & @SenatorComitta with a bipartisan leadership award for championing the Beagle Bill! 👏🏽🐶 Do you live in PA? Ask your state rep to support the bill and help protect animals in PA laboratories! ➡️ humaneworld.org/PAAnimalTesting

@SenLisaBoscola Thank you for your leadership and always standing against animal cruelty.

Let’s ban live pigeon shoots, pass Victoria’s Law, and move the Beagle Bill forward. Thank you to everyone who came to the Capitol to support these important initiatives. (2/2)

Today, I stood alongside advocates from Humane World for Animals, @HumanePA, the Senate Animal Protection Caucus, and fellow legislators to push for stronger protections for animals across our Commonwealth. (1/2)

I’m incredibly thankful to be helping lead the fight for Pennsylvania’s “Beagle Bill” — SB 381 — to strengthen protections for dogs and cats used in laboratory testing. 🐾🇺🇸 This legislation promotes adoption, increases transparency, and stops taxpayer dollars from funding painful animal experiments. These animals deserve compassion and humane treatment, and I’m proud to stand for that principle. *from public sources

It was an honor to receive the Pennsylvania Humane Leadership Award for bipartisan work advancing the Beagle Bill. This legislation represents an important step toward ending inhumane animal testing and promoting responsible, ethical treatment of animals. Proud to work across the aisle to protect those who cannot speak for themselves.

@SenMastriano Thank you for your work on advancing the Beagle Bill! Also congratulations on receiving the Pennsylvania Humane Leadership Award!

Thrilled to join @RepLPowell at the @HumanePA mural unveiling this afternoon in a bustling Strip District! If you’re in the Strip check out the big bear and learn more about Humane Action’s mission.

Thank you to the dedicated advocates who made the trip to Harrisburg and to the champion legislators standing up for animals across the Commonwealth.

It was a fantastic day at the capitol today! I had the privilege of being escorted by two adorable beagles along with receiving the Pennsylvania Humane Leadership Award for my bi-partisan work on the Beagle Bill. What a huge honor!
