No Pet Left Behind in Disasters

The House also passed the Pets Evacuation and Transportation Standards (PETS) Act, H.R. 3858, in a landslide 349-24 vote. The PETS Act requires state and local emergency management agencies to take into account the needs of individuals with pets and service animals in the event of a major disaster. The HSUS and the HSLF are working hard to pass this legislation before the next hurricane season begins. If you have not yet contacted your two U.S. Senators about S. 2548, the Senate version of the PETS Act, please act now to help save pets before disaster strikes again .
