TOPIC: State level process of legislating animal welfare bills. How people can get involved!
Paws Across America Advocacy (PAAA) works to educate people on how to "vote smart" for animal welfare friendly candidates and provides tools to help locate your reps voting history. See: www.hslf.org Score Cards.  We must all make, constant, contact with our elected officials to communicate what animals need! 
With that being said, the voting public wants better laws for protection, and stiffer penalties for abusers of animal cruelty, neglect and "shelter reform."  PAAA keeps in contact with candidates by emails, letters and phone calls.

Animal Advocates Radio:”Voices Carry for Animals #230”- Rosemary Alles- GMFER

Hosted by Debbie Dahmer
Guest will be: Rosemary Alles- President and Co-Founder of Global March for Elephants & Rhinos
https://march4elephantsandrhinos.org/
https://www.facebook.com/March4Elephants/
                                          SPEAKING OUT FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NO VOICE
TOPIC: How to get involved with the Global March for Elephants & Rhinos?
The mission of Global March for Elephants and Rhinos (GMFER) is to #MarchAgainstExtinction and demand that world leaders take action to STOP the poaching of elephants and rhinos and to END the trade in ivory and rhino horn.
GMFER demands the end to the trade in ivory and rhino horn and all other portions of their bodies. As long as there is a consumer market for these “products,” the scourge of poaching, killing at least 75 elephants every day, and over 1000 rhinos every year, for products that are unnecessary and without medicinal value, will continue. We also demand an end to continued trophy hunting of at-risk species, whether in the wild or in “canned hunts,” because this practice maintains and increases demand every bit as much as poaching does.

https://www.facebook.com/ADFC.Worldwide.Org/
                                         SPEAKING OUT FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NO VOICE
TOPIC: How animal abuse leads to child & elderly abuse, and domestic violence? How you can help the victims get Justice!
People who hurt animals don’t stop with animals. There is an established link between cruelty to animals and violence toward humans. Research backs up the finding that there is a direct link between acts of cruelty to animals and violence toward humans. This includes child abuse, domestic violence, elder abuse and other violent behavior.
Abusers target the powerless, crimes against animals, spouses, children, and the elderly often go hand in hand. Children who abuse animals may be repeating a lesson learned at home
A handful of states require animal control officers and spousal/child abuse investigators to share information when animal abuse or domestic abuse is found in a home.
