Big Cat Public Safety Act Waiting Its Fate in the Senate

In a rare bipartisan agreement, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Big Cat Public Safety Act by a vote of 278 to 134. The bill is now in the hands of the Senate.

The bill is sponsored by Rep. Michael Quigley, D-Ill., and Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, R-PA.

The act would protect big cats in captivity, ensuring they have a higher quality of life. It would also add protections for those in contact with wildlife. This includes first responders, law enforcement officials, and the general public.
