About Us
Who are we?
The Animal Justice Party (AJP) was established in 2009 to give a political voice to those who have none – to pursue the vital issues of animal protection through Australia’s political system and to encourage political parties to adopt animal-friendly policies. In 2015 we had our first member of parliament elected to the NSW parliament, the Hon. Mark Pearson.
Our goal is to prevent the exploitation of animals and environmental destruction by changing the law. We plan to stop factory farming, live export, companion and domestic animal abuse, and the exploitation of animals for sport and entertainment.
We lobby for tougher animal protection laws and increased penalties for convicted animal abusers. We fight for better regulations around the trade of companion animals. We advocate for better education and awareness for the treatment of animals.

What We Do In NSW
In 2015 we made history when the Hon. Mark Pearson was elected to the NSW parliament. The first person in Australian history to be elected on an animal protection platform. Around 80 per cent of national, state and local legislation affects animals. Whether it’s kangaroo slaughter, intensive factory farming, puppy farms, animal testing or the live export trade.
The AJP is giving a voice to animals in the NSW parliament by introducing the following bills:
Banning the use of primates for medical research;
Right to Release giving cats and dogs that have been experimented on the opportunity to find a home;
Banning exotic animals in circuses; and
Introducing mandatory monitoring systems, CCTV and fire sprinklers in intensive farming industries.
