  • 2018 Annual Report
    January 2019 AVMA State Legislative Update: 2018 Annual Report As a service to assist associations in tracking emerging policy trends that are important to the veterinary profession, the AVMA Division of State Advocacy sent more than 1,500 legislative and regulatory alerts in 2018 to state and allied veterinary medical associations. The focus of legislation covered a wide range of topics, including animal cruelty, non-economic damages, pharmaceutical issues, scope of practice, and zoonotic disease. With respect to animal welfare, hundreds of proposals pertaining to animal abuse, cruelty, neglect, tethering, unattended animals, hoarding, and proper living conditions were considered by policymakers. Not one of the six states that considered establishing registries for animal abusers passed such a measure. ➢ California became the first state in the county to prohibit pet store operators from selling a dog, cat, or rabbit unless the animal is obtained from a public animal control agency or shelter, humane society shelter, or rescue group. ➢ New Jersey became the first state in the country to ban elephants and other exotic animals from traveling performances. This new law defines exotic animals as any species of mammal, bird, reptile, amphibian, fish, mollusk, or crustacean that is not indigenous to the state. ➢ Lawmakers in seven states introduced measures to encourage law enforcement and good Samaritans to assist animals trapped in vehicles during extreme heat or cold. Two such states, Louisiana and Pennsylvania, enacted laws that do not hold people liable for damage done to vehicles while rescuing animals in apparent distress. ➢ California and Wisconsin legislatures enacted new laws allowing emergency medical service providers to provide pre-veterinary emergency care to a dog or cat if the provider has received commensurate training and exempting these providers from any civil liability that could arise from providing such care.
