Nevada is taking a significant step toward ending the sale of dogs and cats in retail pet stores. Assembly Bill 487, known as “Cindy Lou’s Law,” is now under consideration in the Senate.

These cuts put at risk the programs, reporting, and community outreach that make local public media a trusted part of Americans’ daily life.
