Two noteworthy bills have been introduced in Washington since the beginning of the 114th Congress in January 2015. Both strengthen federal criminal laws for animal abuse.
The Pet and Women Safety Act of 2015, H.R. 1258, makes it a federal crime to threaten, or commit violence against, a pet through interstate stalking or violation of a protection order.
The Preventing Animal Cruelty and Torture (PACT) Act, H.R. 2293/S. 1831 would make it a federal crime to commit certain animal cruelty, where the federal government has jurisdiction.
The PAWS Act, referred to both the House Judiciary and Agriculture Committees:
- requires that the perpetrator pay for all losses, including veterinary care
- funds programs to assist domestic violence victims and their pets via Department of Agriculture grants
- “states should encourage the inclusion of protections against violent or threatening acts against the pet of the person in domestic violence protection orders” [AFA is supporting a Michigan bill that would do just that]
