The Libre Report
I make regular appearances at fundraising and media events throughout the state. I’ve even been dubbed PA’s top animal welfare lobbyist! That's right, I hit the Hill to visit all of our elected officials whenever an important bill is being considered.
My story is still spreading!!!
Take a look at this coverage by The Dodo. They recapped my story of survival, and even threw in a photo from my love fest with Governor Wolf!
The Governor is signing Libre's Law today!

Come on out and join us!!
