A new animal advocacy group has formed that will be politically active in
elections, including Houston's upcoming November elections. The group is
called No Kill Texas Advocates.
www.NoKillTexasAdvocates.org
No Kill Texas Advocates' website will list information such animal
shelter statistics; links to local animal related ordinances and state
statutes; and contact information for the politicians in each city and
county in Texas as well as the state level. Hopefully, it will be a good
resource for Texas animal advocates.
See the article on Examiner for
more information, "Get political to save shelter pets"

Candidate
questionnaires were recently sent out to candidates running for Houston's
mayor and city council. The candidates will be rated before the November
elections so hopefully we can make informed decisions and elect more animal
friendly politicians to city council. There are currently 60 candidates, so
we hope that this means that there are several animal friendly candidates
are running. Here is the page for Houston:
http://www.nokilltexasadvocates.org/houston_%20reps.html. Candidates are
listed towards the bottom.
Please help spread awareness about the No
Kill Texas Advocates website to all of your animal loving friends and
family. We want to make sure that all animal lovers visit the website before
they go to the polls in November. We animal lovers must band together to get
more animal friendly politicians in office.
