Historic Day June 4

June 4 was a historic day in Virginia for the animals. The Animal fighting omnibus bill was signed by the Governor. Now the animals in our commonwealth will have greater protection from those who would use them for illegal financial gain and abuse. Cockfighting is now a felony so that criminals will stay at home and stop coming to VA where the laws used to be weak.

I am proud to have been a part of the Virginia Anti Dogfighting Coalition and on the bill drafting committee. I am proud to have been a part of history in animal welfare.
