The animals are counting on us to protect them by voting for candidates on NOVEMBER 2nd who support life-saving animal rights legislation! NYCLASS is excited to share our 2021 General Election Endorsements for City Council, Borough President, and District Attorney in New York City! All of the candidates we endorse share our values about kindness to animals being an important part of social justice and a more compassionate, fair society for all. NYCLASS proudly supports these candidates who champion animal rights legislation that protects all animals - from pets, animals used for food and profit, to wildlife - and who will fight to end rampant carriage horse abuse in New York City.
