Illinois Breeder Licensing HB 198/SB 53 Call to Action

February 11, 2009

SAOVA Friends,

HB 198 was scheduled to be heard by the Business/Occupational Licenses 
Committee on February 10th. However, the bill was never addressed in 
Committee.  It will remain on the Committee?s agenda and will be rescheduled at 
the request of Rep. Fritchey.  The bill will devastate responsible breeding in 
the state and hundreds of Illinois dog breeders have already voiced their 
opposition to HB 198. We must continue to increase the pace until the voices of 
opposition number in the thousands.
