Please share this alert with Legislative Liaisons, Club Members, and
Responsible Dog Owners in Massachusetts.
Today, the Massachusetts Senate agreed to the minor technical changes made to
Nero’s Law by the House last week. Now, HB 4431 has been sent to Governor
Baker’s desk for consideration. He has ten days to sign the bill, veto it, or
return it to the Legislature requesting changes.
The bill allows emergency care and transportation for a police dog injured in
the line of duty, while ensuring ambulance use remains a priority for human
transport.
Massachusetts residents are urged to contact the Governor’s office requesting
he sign “Nero’s Law” into law. Using this form, select the “comment” button
and then fill out the required fields for your name and contact information.
In the “message box”, share with the Governor why he ought to support police
K9s by signing HB 4431.
AKC GR will continue providing updates on Nero’s Law. For more information on
this or other legislative issues in Massachusetts, contact AKC GR at
919-816-3720 or doglaw@xxxxxxx; or the Massachusetts Federation of Dog Clubs
and Responsible Dog Owners at info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
