> How this ghoulish bill lives on...
>
> September 11, 2009
>
> SB 250 was brought to a full vote of the California Assembly on  
> Tuesday, September 8th and failed, 28 ayes to 42 noes. But before  
> responsible pet owners could declare a hard earned victory, the  
> member presenting the bill quickly requested reconsideration, making  
> SB 250 a “2 year bill”. So despite the thoughtful, informed decision  
> of the Assembly to reject SB 250, the bill’s supporters still refuse  
> to accept defeat. Now a bill that should very well be dead and  
> buried, will continue to lurk and shamble through the halls of the  
> State Capitol when session reconvenes in January 2010.
>
> It’s obvious to even the most casual observer that the push for  
> mandatory spay neuter in Sacramento has been a series of failures  
> and second chances. Starting with AB 1634 in 2007, which morphed 11  
> times before finally meeting its demise, and resurfacing in its  
> current form as SB 250, the failed concept of forced spay/neuter  
> never seems to die!
>
> But, the reality is that our coalition of responsible pet owners  
> will continue to fight and win these legislative battles and become  
> stronger and more united until the war is won. That means continuing  
> to educate your legislators, friends and neighbors at every  
> opportunity during the interim recess. We need to always reinforce  
> the message that any law that seeks to coerce pet owners using  
> punishment and threats rather than incentives and affordable options  
> is doomed to fail. This winds up harming shelters and pets instead  
> of helping them.
>
> Meanwhile, AB 241 -- an animal rights bill that has not received the  
> same level of scrutiny -- has just passed the legislature and is  
> headed to the Governor’s desk. This bill, heavily backed by HSUS,  
> sets a dangerous precedent that will lead to the slow extinction of  
> dog and cat breeders in California. Those who oppose all breeding  
> will start by eliminating high-volume breeders, (the easiest  
> targets), and work their way down in number to hobby breeders,  
> leaving businesses ruined and thousands of dogs and cats displaced  
> in their wake. We cannot allow this to happen.
>
> Please click here to read more about AB 241 and send an email or fax  
> to Governor Schwarzenegger urging him to veto this bill.
>
> Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication to defeating anti- 
> pet legislation!
