The Idaho House is considering a bill that would toughen Idaho's animal
welfare laws by defining animal torture in companion animals, but members of
the Senate have vowed to block it.
Sen. Steve Bair, a Republican farmer from Blackfoot and chairman of the
Senate Agricultural Affairs Committee, is worried that such a bill one day
might affect the way farmed animals are treated. He said, "We need to draw a
line in the sand long before they get to production animals."
How appalling it is that members of the Senate so openly guard the
abominable laws that allow them to victimize God’s farmed animals! It’s

totally trumped their ethics. Christians should take a stand for God’s
animals in the face of their unnecessary and egregious abuse. This is part
of what makes us good stewards of God’s Creation. text
