President Obama, Enact Harsher Animal Cruelty Laws in the U.S.

"WE NEED TO SPEAK OUT FOR THE ANIMALS THAT HAVE NO VOICE, AND GET JUSTICE FOR THEM"!  Please join my group that communicates to our Elected Officials in Congress and to President Obama for the Urgent need for Much Stronger Animal Cruelty Legislation.  Together We can ALL make a difference for all the animals that depend on US to Protect them from Harm.
Please feel free to post material such as abuse stories, pictures, video's, and petitions that emphasizes the critical need for Immediate legislation for Stronger Animal Cruelty laws to Protect our four legged friends from abuse. 

Examples of postings that are not acceptable:
- no animal shelter petitions/No kill, No spay/neuter.
- postings on rescue's, rehoming, or adopting animals.
- posting of articles/petitions on Causes - examples: Save the whales, etc. from extinction.    Stopping a company from selling fur clothing.  Closing down puppy mills.  BSL issues. 
- Animal memorials.
- articles/petitions on abuse cases that are outside of the U.S.  (Yes, I do realize the astronomical abuse cases all over the globe, but I strictly want to focus on the abuse/cruelty cases that are perpetrated in the United States only.)  An FYI, my petition on this cause only accepts signatures from U.S. citizens only.  I'm so sorry for this, but the petition does not except zip codes from other countries.

If you are in doubt of what you are posting.  Ask yourself this question before posting "Would my post "strongly influence" my elected officials in Congress and President Obama in getting them to take immediate action in Passing Harsher Animal Cruelty legislation"?
If I see these type of inappropriate postings I will give you a friendly reminder about the policies set forth above, and after that if you continue to post these postings, I will have to exclude you from the group.  Thank you all for your understanding and cooperation in this critical crusade in getting Tougher laws put on the books, in helping out all the abused animals.
