    I made my calls and am urging others to do the same.

    Please, make a few more calls. Be respectful and calm.

    Re: USARK Alert - READ!!!!!! November 5 deadline

    faxed every number yesterday and called em all today! usually dont like talking on the phone but it was simple enough. My dad questioned why I didn't go vote for city propositions but made the effort to protect my snakes.... I sure gave him an earful. Cant let these fools take away such an awesome hobby that I'm just getting in to. Keep it up everyone!!

    However, I wonder, even if this gets out of committee, how likely is it to even come to the floor, let alone pass? Maybe we should forget about the committee members and start working on our local reps in advance.
    Yes, I have already contacted my list of representatives to ensure they know ahead of time that I oppose the ban.

    Now this is a little more tricky and WILL require a phone call and a letter signed by you the registered voter in their district on your feelings on this subject to really make an impact.

    I in no way feel that we should skip or give up on the committees, but if you think the supporters of this bill havent already started greasing the skids with congressional and senate officials ..... think again.

    We have to think ahead of this problem.
