Central Standard Time Subj: [TX_RPOA_E-News] TX Misinfo: There is no HB 2310! TX-RPOA E-News >From RPOA Texas Outreach and Responsible Pet Owners Alliance "Animal welfare, not animal 'rights' and, yes, there is a difference." Permission granted to crosspost. February 7, 2011 There is no HB 2310 filed this Texas Legislative Session so please ignore an anonymous email that has gone viral with instructions to contact members of the Conference Committee regarding this bill. THE MISINFORMATION ALL REFERS TO OUR LAST TEXAS LEGISLATIVE SESSION IN 2009! Please do NOT contact the Conference Committee members listed as they'll be very irritated! The Texas Legislature hasn't even appointed House Committees yet but should be doing so later this week. The Senate Committees have been appointed but NO committee hearings can be held yet unless the bills are declared an "emergency" by Governor Perry. So there are no animal bills even assigned to committees - which don't even exist yet. Please don't jump the gun! And folks, it was our late dearly beloved Rep. Edmund Kuempel who killed this attempt by Senator Whitmire in 2009 to attach the Senate HSUS/Texas Humane Legislative Network misnamed "Puppymill" Bill to Kuempel's HB 2310 in the Conference Committee. RPOA nominated Rep. Kuempel for the first ever "AKC Legislator of the Year 2009" Award which led to his being chosen. His son, Rep. John Kuempel, has been elected to fill his vacant seat in the legislature. RPOA will be announcing all committee hearings with our announcement-only TX RPOA E-News.
