Right now, students in Connecticut have a unique chance to change the world for animals who are neglected, mutilated, and killed to end up on their dissection tray!
Connecticut legislators have introduced a bill, HB 5530, that would allow students to opt out of classroom animal dissection and be provided with humane alternatives. If it becomes law, HB 5530 will mean that students can’t be forced to violate their ethical and religious beliefs about animals! It will also mean that students can help save the lives of some of the more than 10 million animals who are killed for dissection.
If you live in Connecticut, here’s how you can help:

Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I am Angela. When I am not helping animals I am listening to music, reading, or playing video games. My spirit animal is a fox and I love nature. What else is there to know? Want to know anything about me, need advice or anything message me :)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
