"we have an opportunity to advance additional public safety measures including protecting our pets from abuse and ensuring animal abusers don’t go on to hurt people"

That is awesome. I wish we had registries up here (and registries that worked). Not that this is the place but when I did research for a letter of advocacy in college, I found out that most of the registries for child sex offenders is voluntary and only mandatory in extreme cases. Yeah Canada! Not.

Anyway, so happy for this news, maybe more states and countries will follow suit.
