The ASPCA - Advocating
for Animals
The ASPCA - Advocating for Animals
Attorney Mindy Farber is outspoken in her support of better living conditions for
animals. Dedicated to animal rescue, Mindy Farber supports several organizations
that advocate against cruelty to animals, among them, the American Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA).
The ASPCA - Advocating for Animals
The ASPCA outlines several areas of advocacy relevant to its mission of
preventing cruelty to domestic and wild animals. It works to counteract the
influences of powerful anti-animal lobbies on the legislative process. The
organization currently acts to defeat “ag-gag,” or anti-whistleblower , laws in
the agriculture industry; supports the regulation of puppy mills; and seeks to
prevent the slaughter of horses for human consumption.
The ASPCA - Advocating for Animals
On its website, the ASPCA provides information on how to contact elected
officials regarding these and other hot-button issues. For those who are unsure
how to write an effective letter, the group gives tips on effective communication
with legislators concerning these problems. Visit ASPCA.org for more information.
