Texas Action Alert! OPPOSE HB 1451!
A Public Hearing on HB 1451 is scheduled for 8:00 AM Tuesday, March 15th,
by
the Licensing & Administrative Committee. Room E2-012 in the Capitol
Building. Bill sponsor is Rep. Senfronia Thompson who also serves on the
committee.
This is the HSUS and Texas Humane Legislation Network's "Puppy Elimination
Bill" that HSUS vowed to get passed in every state after failing at the
federal level in 2005. This is a direct attack on American Kennel Club,
Cat
Fanciers' Association and other show/hobby exhibitors. It is deceptive to
say it is only directed at "puppymills and kittymills." But when do the
extremists ever tell the truth - especially when legislation is involved?
We are truly David up against Goliath as HSUS has poured millions into our
state to get this passed. Just remember that David won that battle! We
have as much passion to protect our animals as the extremists have to
eliminate them by regulating them out of existence.

RPOA OPPOSES this bill for the following reasons:
1. This bill is a "blank check" for animal rights extremists to end all
breeding of dogs and cats in Texas. The bill is not their "goal;" it's
their starting point.
2. All "rules" remain to be written. "You won't know what's in it until it
passes," as Speaker Pelosi said about ObamaCare.
3. No Breeding = No Pets = No Vets = No Pet Supplies.
4. These radical extremists have a deep hatred for all cat and dog
breeders
and say
that every show dog bred causes the death of a shelter dog.
5. HSUS and THLN both say "Get anything passed and come back later!" See
our website for more Talking Points. Make your message personal.
Contact committee members below with phone calls, letters, faxes. On emails
place "OPPOSE HB 1451" in your subject line. When calling, register with
the receptionist as "OPPOSING HB 1451."
