Albany, NY (PRWEB) May 27, 2012
Prince Lorenzo Borghese will join New York State legislators and hundreds of animal rights activists in Albany June 13 for the 2nd annual Animal Advocacy Day. Taking place in the Well of the Legislative Office Building (LOB) in Albany, Borghese will join Assemblyman Jim Tedisco, Senator Greg Ball, and other legislators from both sides of the aisle to strengthen New York?s animal cruelty laws ? already among the toughest in the nation.
Borghese, a New York City resident, is a familiar face in New York?s animal welfare scene where he lends a welcome voice to a multitude of charitable organizations whose mission is to improve the quality of life for the planet?s animal population.
He has also teamed with Animal Aids? veterinary partners for low-cost spay and neuter services in low income areas throughout the United States. Borghese?s Royal Pet Club donates $2 from every new customer purchase and five percent of profits from Royal Treatment pet care products to support a spay/neuter program throughout the country.
Borghese was compelled to join the Animal Advocacy event to help bring awareness to the plight of abused animals.
?I am proud to be participating in Animal Advocacy Day to be a voice for the voiceless,? Borghese said. ?We must come together to end all abuse of our innocent and loving animal friends.
?I am continually shocked that our great nation hasn't implemented strict, uniform laws to stop the horrific abuse occurring daily. It is my intention to bring awareness to this issue and help get tougher laws implemented.?
Animal Advocacy Day is the latest in a series of events launched In 1999, when more than 118,000 signatures were collected in New York State to pass the landmark Buster?s Law creating the felony category of ?aggravated cruelty to animals,? punishable by up to two years in prison and a $5,000 fine. Buster?s Law was named after an 18-month-old tabby cat that had been doused with kerosene and burned to death by a Schenectady teenager. As research indicates, violence against animals is a bridge crime that can, and has, led to violence against people.
Among the bi-partisan legislation being advocated for are measures to: require anyone convicted of Buster?s Law to undergo a psychiatric evaluation (A.1580/S.5084 and A.1567/S.3805) and be placed on a registry of animal abusers (A.1506/S.3804) as well as bills to increase penalties for animal fighting (S.3806 and A.4407/S.3237).

Borghese will also be hosting the Amazing Grace ?Paint That Bus? campaign/fundraiser, in conjunction with Animal Aid USA in July.
