Title: RPOA - TX HB 1451 and Governor Rick Perry, presidential hopeful? Post by: jls41 on June 02, 2011, 08:03:22 am Crossposting is encouraged.
June 1, 2011 Check out our friend Susan Wolf's website for a sample letter to Governor Perry and see the growing list of all the groups that have signed on in OPPOSITION to HB 1451. If your group hasn't signed on yet, it can be done by emailing the address for SAOVA at the website. We're faxing the list to Governor Perry each time it is updated. Thanks, Susan! http://saova.org/TexasHB1451.html Sportsmen's and Animal Owners' Voting Alliance RPOA is networking with many animal groups all over the country. Since our Texas Governor Rick Perry is "thinking about running for president" now it is appropriate that he hears from everyone - no matter what state you live in -- as to why he should veto the HSUS Texas Anti-Breeder Bill HB 1451. The numbers are being tallied and we need your help. This is Texas and "animal rights" activists aren't welcome here no more!" HB 1451 is not written to regulate dog and cat breeders but rather to eliminate them. The "commercial" and "high volume" breeder wording has been removed and reveals the true intent of the bill -- all dog and cat breeders in Texas eventually. Please contact Governor Perry at these numbers below and ask that he veto HB 1451.

Interesting article at The Dog Place: http://www.thedogplace.org/LEGISLATION/HB1451-Perry-1106.asp TEXAS HB 1451 COULD BE NATIONAL LAW IN 2013 May 29, 2011 - If Texas Governor Rick Perry doesn't veto HB 1451, it could become a NATIONAL animal rights law. Here's why. Last week Rick Perry said on network news that he is "thinking about" running for President. Rush Limbaugh said Perry for President would be a "game changer" and regardless of party affiliation, most Americans would agree. Perry is powerful. And he's a busy guy, what with all the thinking and strategizing going on in his camp. He doesn't have time to read every word of every bill that someone with a vested interest puts on his desk for signature. It does not matter which state you're in! If enough of you take 2 minutes out of your busy day to protect your own vested interest, RICK PERRY WILL GET THE MESSAGE! Send a message to Governor Rick Perry and ask him to "VETO HB 1451" the misnamed "Puppy Mill Bill." Perry's campaign managers will get a national message loud and clear. That is, if dog and cat owners care enough to fight for their pets - and for their Constitutional Rights to own Property, to be free of Search and Seizure, and the right to Privacy. The following excerpts are from Diane Amble, RPOA Texas Outreach and Responsible Pet Owners Alliance, "Animal welfare, not animal 'rights' and, yes, there is a difference." They ask you to please forward and have everybody call every day if possible. The Governors office only cares about the numbers and which side you are on. <READ MORE AT THE URL ABOVE> |
