Humane PA presents our 2020 endorsements for Pennsylvania state offices in the upcoming election on November 3rd. This was an especially challenging year. There were no priority animal votes to score this session due to the onset of Covid 19 interrupting the movement of animal legislation. Therefore we considered past legislative scorecards, our endorsement survey and electoral viability. We were encouraged to note that this year, many of the new challengers who are running for office have a strong commitment to the humane treatment of animals. We always give priority to our humane leader and supporter incumbents who deserve our support for leading the fight against animal cruelty for years. We had some very tough choices! If there is no endorsement listed in your district – we encourage you to contact your candidates to discuss their commitment to anti-cruelty legislation. If your candidate is endorsed – please congratulate them!
