“FRANKFORT, Ky. (KT) - A Kentucky lawmaker is asking the Kentucky
and U.S. attorneys general to investigate the fundraising methods of
the Humane Society of the United States.
Sen. Robin Webb, D-Grayson, introduced a resolution Friday encouraging the probe.
“This certainly is not a novel idea,” she said.
“Other states have investigated the fundraising tactics on a
consumer protection fraud basis and actually received settlement
awards.”
Webb called the actions of the Humane Society "deceptive."
“They run no pet shelters, very little of the money goes to any
pet-related welfare,” she said. “It is far better to
donate to local shelters and support your local humane society that are
non-affiliates. If they’re on the ground, actually doing work,
other than using disasters for fundraising tactics, they’re
usually a legitimate Humane Society rescue.”
She also pointed out a scandal allegedly involving former Chief
Executive Wayne Pacelle that led to his resignation earlier this month
amid allegations of sexual harassment.”

make discreet inquiry to them, “Is THLN a
good group to donate to?” If they answer
yes, don’t donate to anyone who says
"Yes, THLN is OK!"
