LOCAL ROUNDUP

Council Members Vote on Humane Education
Despite the best efforts of the League of Humane Voters of NYC and dozens of protesters that took to City Hall on Tuesday, City Council Speaker Christine Quinn opposed Resolution 497.  The Humane Education resolution required teachers to be notified of an existing law that requires elementary schools to teach students about the humane treatment of animals.
