oppie Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I don't know if any of you have read about HR 669, but I want to bring it to your attention. It's bad news. In a nutshell, if it passes, you will not be able to buy, sell, or even give away any animal that is not native to the United States, including birds. Companies will not be allowed to make products for non native animals. You will not be allowed to transport them across state lines. Some people say this is aimed at poisonous snakes, monkeys, etc., but that is not how it's written. This law must be stopped. You can read all of the details and help kill this law at: the American Federation of Aviculture's view of HHR 669 Please take action before its hearing on April 23, 2009.<br><br>Post edited by: oppie, at: 2009/04/16 06:33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Thanks for posting this. Other such laws have been put forth before and failed. With the loud voice of the other Americans here joining in by voicing and voting their part, it will get shot down. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oppie Posted April 25, 2009 Author Share Posted April 25, 2009 Hello, H.R. 669 is not dead, just delayed. We still need your help! Here is a site where it's easier to mail your Representative than it is on the AFA's site: NO H.R. 669. Please add to the letter how this bill will affect you. Thank you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
