SCHUMER:TRUMP ADMINISTRATION USDA IS HIDING CRITICAL INFO THAT HELPS PREVENT ANIMAL CRUELTY
U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer ^ | 2/17/2017 | U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer

After More Than a Decade of Providing the Public With Access to Animal Welfare Records, the USDA Suddenly Pressed ‘Delete’ On Its Online Database, Which Includes Info on Whether Animals Are Being Treated Humanely At Facilities Across the Country 

Following USDA’s Decision, Schumer Says USDA Must Re-establish Transparency & Help Deter Future Animal Welfare Violations 

Schumer: Animal Advocates Should Not Have To Play Tug Of War On Transparency With New Administration’s USDA 

U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer today called on the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to reverse its decision to remove inspection reports on animal facilities and related animal cruelty information from its website. The USDA annually inspects approximately 9,000 licensed facilities including dog and cat breeding facilities, laboratories and more.  Over the past decade, the USDA has provided the public with information on compliant and non-compliant licensees by posting inspection reports on its website. Schumer and his colleagues, which include Senator Menendez (D-NJ), wrote to the Acting Deputy Secretary of the USDA and asked that public access to animal welfare records be restored immediately

“When it comes to protecting animals and potential pets, the Trump administration’s USDA has just dropped the ball by doing away with access to information that safeguards vulnerable animals and outs abusive puppy mills,” said U.S. Senator Charles Schumer. “

Do it for the chiren.
Do it for the small furry animals.
Do it for the beaver...

Don’t they realize how desperate they are sounding?

Since the inauguration, Schumer has been a complete schmuck in that he has tried to find fault with everything Trump has been doing except breathing and going to the bathroom. I’m about sick of Charles E. Schumer.

The useless USDA needs to be shut down. Along with the useless EPA, Labor, Education, Energy, etc, etc, etc, ad infinitum, ad nauseam.

What to say about a man who goes to the line to save puppies but fails to get off his azz to save an unborn infant?

Chuckie has his priorities disabled. And, BTW, puppies are always loved, why not infants (in or out of the womb)?

President Trump: “Just keep it up and see what happens!” Not tired of winning yet!” :-)
