The Texas Humane Legislation Network (THLN) is a Texas-based 501(c)(4) nonprofit focused on animal welfare and the reform of state animal welfare laws. Founded in 1975, it operates as a political voice for animals across the state, engaging in lobbying related to animal welfare issues. The organization positions itself as the only Texas-based group dedicated to addressing unjust state laws governing animal welfare, aiming to prevent cruelty and abuse by influencing policy and legislation. Based in Austin, THLN supports activities that influence public policy, such as collaborations with government agencies and public officials, and has pursued initiatives including the development of an animal-friendly license plate and participation in legislative sessions. Its work includes coordinating endorsements and participating in local partnerships to address animal sheltering, cruelty, and related programs, with a focus on advancing spay/neuter initiatives and other welfare priorities.
