President Trump signed the PACT Act, making severe animal mistreatment a federal offense in the United States. 🐾📜
A major animal welfare measure became federal law in November 2019 when President Trump signed the Preventing Animal Cruelty and damaged (PACT) Act. The legislation received strong bipartisan support in both the House and Senate. Supporters said the law addressed an important gap in federal protections and strengthened efforts to improve animal welfare across the country.
