Well I posted on this thread last week about not being able to read the link posted about the bill... Needless to say, that post was deleted for some reason and then the new copy was posted here. I'm not only talking about updating on status, I'm talkin keeping people in the loop as in having other people and organizations help throw in some input as to what goes and doesn't go in the bill, who exactly needs to be called, seeing if other people can get other outside sources/ connections/ professional opinions. For example, I noticed that there is nothing in the newly revised bill about transportation of working dogs and if I remember correctly there was recently a post about someone getting a ticket for dogs being in a dog box. Another example- outside sources- a law school friend of mine who I'm introducing to hog dogging says that this bill is "only part of a bill" which will make it hard to pass, it's also strictly an "exemption bill" which will make it hard to Pass, he also stated that next session (since he is 100% sure it won't pass this session) we need to get quite a bit of money together for things like "a well known lobbyist" and "campaign contributions to the right people" and get "as many organization on board as possible" power in numbers basically.
Another thought I had, a suggestion to the mods, is two years from now during the next session y'all should put the laws and bills board at the top or the boards so when you click on forum it's the first thing you see. Myself, and I'm sure many others, log on and first thing we see is all the cool stuff. Then as the stories are read and the post are made I forget to look in this section. I just noticed that these threads don't get a whole lot of hits compared to the others and I think that might help.
Myself and everyone else appreciates lswd associations hard work and effort in working on this bill. Still have my fingers crossed that we can make it happen this year. But if not this year we can do it bigger and better two years from now and hopefully get it passed then.
