I call upon you for your help in an urgent matter.
Here are some specifics on the bill that will be discussed on Tuesday, Nov.
15 at the State House in Boston. The hearing is at 10 am, Room A 1 on the first
floor of the State House.
Senate Bill, No. 1840 "for legislation to prohibit the use of exotic
animals in traveling shows and circuses"
"AN ACT PROHIBITING THE USE OF EXOTIC ANIMALS IN TRAVELING SHOWS AND
CIRCUSES"
"It also would ban the use of animals in any 'Traveling shows."
As Many of you know the use of animals in traveling shows is a vital part
of our business.
Please understand that there are USDA animal welfare and
state fish and wildlife inspections and regulations in place that guarantee the
proper handling of our animals. There is absolutely No need for
a total ban.
We are being told that this is a very big issue right now and the people
pushing for passage are well organized.
Below is a list of e mails for Massachusetts senators that will be at this
hearing Next Tuesday. Please E mail as many as you can and tell them you
are oppose senate bill 1840 the ban on exotic animals in traveling
shows. We really need to get some phone calls, emails, letters,
faxes.
Thank you in advance for your help in sending the message asking
them Not To support the proposed ban senate
bill 1840.
Sincerely,
Lance Gifford
PLEASE E MAIL THE BELOW STATE SENATORS AND ASK THEM NOT TO SUPPORT SENATE BILL 1840 THE PROPOSED
