The best suggestion I have is to join PIJAC as an affiliate ... https://www.pijac.org/membership/forms/index.asp. There is strength in numbers for sure and PIJAC really needs the membership dues.
I'd also encourage everyone in the reptile hobby/trade to support and join USARK. We need to stand together and USARK is the definitive voice of all reptile keepers.
If you keep birds or fish, join organizations involved in supporting those hobbys.
Also, spread the word. The more people that we all can educate about the joy of keeping pets and interacting with these amazing creatures the less of a hold that the "pet prohibitionists" will have on our lives.
I know that times are tough and money is tight for everyone right now, but if you're spending at least $12 a week on reptile food, bedding, electric, and/or other supplies, membership in BOTH PIJAC and USARK is less than 10% of your total annual expenses. A small price to pay to protect your rights to keep your animals.
Both of these organizations are our best bet at fighting the groups that want to end all pet ownership in the United States.
