No Kill Resolution in CA - ACR 74

CA ACR 74 was just introduced yesterday. It is not a binding agreement and has no fiscal effect, but it's a great first step toward establishing the tenets of the No Kill Movement throughout California. I personally applaud the Assembly Member who presents it, ASM Anthony Portantino, and I'm going to call his office to say THANK YOU. How 'bout you?
Complete bill history is here.
Complete text is here.
Current status and all updates will be available here.

Read this bill all the way through; it establishes the credibility of the many
people and organizations that have been fighting MSN, 2007's AB1634
and the current crop of H$U$-PeTA-Farm Sanctuary etc inspired radical
animal rights bills.

From the Legislative Counsel's Digest at the top of the Resolution's text:
ACR 74, as introduced, Portantino.
Animal shelters: No Kill movement policies.

This measure would urge local animal services agencies, local
animal shelters, agencies under contract to provide animal services,
societies for the prevention of cruelty to animals, and humane
societies to embrace the philosophy of the No Kill movement and
implement its programs and services aimed at ending the mass
killing
of sheltered animals.

Fiscal committee: no.
