Humane USA Endorsements for Michigan ’s November 7th General Election Humane USA is the nation's largest animal protection political action committee.  To learn more, please visit us on line at http://www.humaneusa.org

How candidate endorsements were selected?

For candidates holding office and seeking re-election, we examine their voting records, what legislation they have sponsored or co-sponsored, their response to unfriendly legislation, and other actions in support or opposition to issues of great importance to animals. In most instances, we have a working relationship with the office holder already.

For candidates who have never held office before, we ask candidates to fill out questionnaires explaining their positions on issues of importance to us. We also rely on our supporters to inform us of individuals running for office who are good on animal issues. In some instances, candidates seek us out.

Multiple candidates are occasionally selected in districts because all had favorable views on animals protection issues.
