Bill 118 HRES 1515, also known as the "National Animal Rescue Day" bill, aims to designate October 1, 2024, as a day to raise awareness about the importance of animal adoption, educate the public on the significance of spaying and neutering animals, and encourage more people to adopt animals in need throughout the United States.
The bill emphasizes the need to address the issue of animal overpopulation and the importance of responsible pet ownership. By designating a specific day for National Animal Rescue Day, the hope is to bring attention to the millions of animals in shelters across the country that are in need of loving homes.
The bill does not propose any specific actions or funding, but rather seeks to create a national day of recognition to highlight the importance of animal rescue and adoption. It is a non-partisan effort to promote compassion and responsibility towards animals and to encourage more people to consider adopting a pet from a shelter or rescue organization.
Overall, Bill 118 HRES 1515 aims to promote awareness, education, and action towards improving the lives of animals in need and fostering a culture of compassion and responsibility towards our furry friends.
