MO Representative Calls for United Opposition to Proposed Breeder Ballot
Measure

[Wednesday, April 28, 2010]

Missouri State Representative Michael Parson has issued an open letter
calling for a united opposition to the proposed ballot measure in  
Missouri
that would restrict responsible dog breeding in the state.
The AKC opposes the proposed ballot measure, which would place a cap  
on the
number of animals someone in Missouri may own. We support, however,  
House
Joint Resolution 86. If adopted by the Legislature, HJR 86 would place a
measure on the November 2010 ballot that would protect the rights of
Missouri residents to raise animals in a humane manner that protects  
animal
health without allowing the state to impose undue economic burdens on  
animal
owners.

The AKC asks that you join with us, the Missouri Federation of Animal
Owners, members of the Missouri Legislature and other agricultural and  
dog
organizations in opposing the proposed ballot measure and supporting  
House
Joint Resolution 86.
How You Can Help:

Contact your state Senator TODAY. Ask them to support House Joint  
Resolution
86
Read the latest on HJR 86 and how you can help get this proposal on the
November 2010 ballot.

Contact your state Representative and Senator. Let them know that you
appreciate the public support expressed by Representative Parson and  
some of
their other colleagues. Ask them to join the AKC, many of their  
colleagues,
and dog and agriculture groups across the state in opposing the proposed
ballot measure that unfairly regulates responsible dog breeding.

legislators.
