Governor Chris Sununu Statement on Revamping the Governor’s Commission on the Humane Treatment of Animals

Concord, NH - Today Governor Chris Sununu issued the following statement after signing an executive order revamping the Governors Commission on the Humane Treatment of Animals at the Wolfeboro Police Department:

"Animal Cruelty will not be tolerated in New Hampshire. I am proud to revamp the Governors Commission on the Humane Treatment of Animals, making it easier for the Commission to recruit members, as well as expanding their duties to include tracking and promoting current legislation, which will allow them a voice in the legislative process. I look forward to working with the commission, advocates and legislators to pass commonsense legislation that protects animals, ensuring that the type of situation that took place in Wolfeboro never happens again."
