Animal+Rights

The Advancement Party believes in equality among all people and creatures, including animals. We believe that mistreatment towards animals is both unethical and immoral. Because we view animal rights as an important issue, stricter rules will be put in place to regulate the livestock industry and larger, harsher punishments will be imposed on animal abusers.
 * Animal Rights: **

Livestock: All certified free range/organic livestock farms will receive annual tax breaks and governmental support. All uncertified livestock farms/companies will have a higher sales tax in stores selling their products, will not receive tax breaks, will be taxed considerably higher every year, and will not be supported by the government. Livestock operations that have unacceptable living conditions for animals will be shut down until corrections are made. Refusal to change unacceptable conditions will result in a large fine and the permanent cessation of business for the company/farm.
