The Humane Scoreboard
The Humane Scoreboard, a project of the Humane Society Legislative Fund, provides a real-time snapshot of where U.S. Senators and Representatives stand on animal protection legislation, votes and policies. The Humane Scoreboard also provides an easy way for constituents to assess where their own federal lawmakers stand on animal protection issues, and helps chart the progress of HSLF's public policy work on behalf of animals. More than ever, animal protection is being treated like the serious societal issue it is on Capitol Hill, and lawmakers are debating policies that have enormous implications for animals.
The Humane Scorecard
HSLF also produces the Humane Scorecard, which is an annual report that scores federal lawmakers based on their actions on major animal protection issues at the end of each year. While the Scoreboard is updated in real-time throughout the year as new votes occur and new cosponsors are added to animal protection bills, the Scorecard is an annual wrap-up of the major issues and achievements. Visit www.humanescorecard.org to review the latest version of the annual Scorecard.
