April Deadlines

The ill-named California Healthy Pet Act (AB 1634) will be heard on April 10th, the first day after the Assembly Members' spring recess. Go here for the full text. Write and make your calls now! The Assembly member roster is here, and info on the office of the Chief Clerk is here.

Be sure to attend the April 17th Sacramento County Board of Supervisors Meeting, starting at 2:30pm (click on Item 42, then read the PDF files in the right column). Right now it looks like the only topic for discussion is the Animal Overpopulation Ordinance. Get there real early and sign up to speak. The Board is expecting a HUGE turnout, and based on what I've heard the folks who want to "spay/neuter everything to save lives" crowd will be pulling out all the stops. If you want to tell Sacramento County what you think about the proposed cat and dog genocide ordinance (oops - did I say that?), call - write - attend!!!

Info on contacting all the Supervisors is here. The April meeting will be held at 700 H Street, Ste 1450 in Sacramento.
