Challenges To Non-profit Groups
Since 2001, NAIA has tried to challenge the non-profit status of certain animal rights groups, notably People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), saying that it and similar groups “use intimidation, harassment and deception to raise money” and use funds for purposes other than those identified in their campaigns. It has documented that, unlike the impression given by its advertising campaigns, the Humane Society does not operate any animal shelters or provide direct care to animals. It spends a great proportion of its revenues on lobbying and working to write and pass legislation.
