## Resource

Two nonprofits in Los Angeles are urging federal intervention to address brutal animal abuse in Skid Row, as local leaders fail to act. Advancing Law for Animals and Starts with One Today have documented cases of mutilation, neglect, and illegal dog breeding, which they believe contribute to dog fighting rings and drug dealing. Despite a petition with tens of thousands of signatures and promises from local officials, action has been slow and inadequate. Federal discussions are ongoing, with recent meetings at the Department of Justice showing potential progress. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
