Crossposted w/permission Our group has just received news that the Illinois Bills HB 198/SB 053 (aka Chloe's Bill/Breeders Bill/Puppy Millers Bill) have been withdrawn at this time. The thought is that they will be reintroduced but more as an amendment to the Illinois Welfare Act. As soon as the new bills are available we will get them out. We can for the time being wait to send letters and make phone calls until the new bill surfaces. Info to follow on the dock/crop bill and its path. permission to crosspost Karen Karen Perry Ouilmette4@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ARC/MRC/AKC Legislative Liaison Illinois __._,_.___ -- Stormy Hope carpoc.org GSDCA Member And more clubs ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2008.
