Change the old out dated "AWA" ( Animal Welfare Act) written in 1966 that calls for only the MINIMUM care of animals.

Why do you continue to ignore the outcry of millions of people about animal abuse? Over 25 MILLION animals are abandoned and killed each year in this Country. Over 16 MILLION are gassed in kill shelters each year. These innocent animals are shoved into tiny chambers, one on top of the other, scared, crying, and fighting to get a breath. Most states get grants to run these kill shelters, but if that money was used to spay and neuter the "OVER POPULATION OF UNWANTED ANIMALS" we could have the population under control in just 10 years or less. These gas chambers are by no way humane! It takes over 20 minutes for an animal to die this way, and those who do survive the gassing are killed in the most horrible way. This is OUTRAGIOUS!!
