Queens lawmaker’s bill to ban animal sales in pet stores advances in state Senate
“We applaud the Senate for moving this bill, which is a win-win for animals and people,” NYC Bar Association Animal Law Committee Chairman Christopher Wlach said. “For one, it promotes animal adoption and reduces the alarming rate of shelter animal euthanasia. At the same time, by eliminating a primary source of sales for puppy, kitten and rabbit mills, it protects consumers and the environment.”
