🎉 BIG WIN FOR ANIMALS! 🎉

We’re thrilled to share that Act 146 is officially law today! 🐾✨ Sixty days ago, Governor Josh Shapiro signed this groundbreaking legislation explicitly allowing companion animals to be included in PFAs. Now, it's in full effect, paving the way for stronger animal protections across Pennsylvania.
