Say bye bye to pythons...

Some offices of the representatives to call haven't even had 2 dozen calls yet regarding HR2811.
The phone lines need to be flooded, wake up people.

come on guys do your part

[Raptor]

I just finished calling all the numbers. I wasn't able to get one number, but it was a home office.

That's so sad to hear. Big turnout on HR669 and then a flop with this round, doesn't make any sense.

[Raptor]

HR669 was regarding all pets, so you have the bird keeps, the fish keepers, the rodent keepers, along with the snake/reptile keepers. This is only the snake keepers.

[BPHERP]

well, this sucks.

if this passes, however, all of our collections just skyrocketed in value.

if you don't believe me, look at any and all other things that become banned or outlawed.

anyway, its ultimately not about the money, but about the freedom being taken away

Keep calling and faxing a personal letter with your personal info to every number! Make sure you get every number! Keep going all day if you have to! I was told by one rep that they have recieved more calls on this than any other issue in the house right now! Here are all the numbers. Keep at it. If you get a busy line move to the next one!

Time is critical, so please take the time to contact the following Congresspeople and ask them -- POLITELY -- to send this bill back to be amended to use the scientific names of the specific animals they're seeking to restrict, and not include common housepets along with animals of concern.
