Owner found; thank you!
Good news; thank you Mr. Glasgow.I am happy that the United States Senate unanimously passed the Preventing Animal Cruelty and Torture (PACT) Act, this week. The bill will make malicious animal cruelty including burning, suffocating, drowning, impaling, crushing and sexually exploiting, a federal crime. However, as this graphic of a 1999 Chicago Tribune article shows, I was fighting against animal cruelty and gratuitous violence 20 years ago when I wrote Illinois’ first-ever animal torture bill, and the only law that protects all animals. This was the first animal abuse law in Illinois to be classified as a felony. You can read about it at https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1999-03-14-9903140204-story.html.
