In the six states it serves—Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont—the NERO is active in supporting legislation that benefits animals and in fighting bills that would harm them. For up-to-date listings of animal-related legislation under consideration in New England, you can visit either the state's individual legislative page or the Government Affairs section's state legislation map. Regardless of which one you pick, you can learn about current bills and whether The HSUS supports or opposes them.
