Democrats in Congress have introduced a PETA-backed bill that, if passed into law, would ban the use and possession of glue traps used to catch rodents.
“It’s very comforting to know that our politicians are focused on protecting the well being and dignity of rats,” Matt Walsh wrote.
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA, supports the proposal.
“PETA thanks Rep. Ted Lieu for his compassion and leadership in introducing the Glue Trap Prohibition Act of 2024,” PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman said, according to Lieu’s press release.Â
“This crucial legislation can help protect vulnerable species of wildlife and save tens of thousands of small animals each year from being injured, permanently disabled, and killed by dehydration, injury or starvation in these primitive, cruel traps.”
