Guest guest Posted November 8, 2004 Report Share Posted November 8, 2004 From Barbara Bagley:I would like to thank everyone who signed the "Animal Emergency Law" petition. The petition was created May 4th 2004 and ended on July 4th 2004, gathering a total of 5,777 signatures. I mailed the petition, including people's posted messages giving reasons for supporting such a law and supportive emails that were sent to me, to my House of Representative "Jim Dunnam". Today, I spoke with Jim Dunnam's chief of staff, Tamara Bell, regarding the petition. She stated to me, she and Mr. Dunnam understood the importance of this issue and supported it. She also explained clearly to me that Mr. Dunnam is a Democrat, and the majority of the Texas House of Representatives are Republican. She said that for the past two sessions, the Republicans have tried to overthrow any BILL put before the House by Democrats. For this reason, she has suggested I contact a citizen of Texas whose House of Representative is Republican and ask that they send the petition to their Representative. If their Representative should agree to create a BILL to put before the House, that Representative can contact Jim Dunnam for support on the issue. He is willing to work "with" Republicans to get such a BILL passed. That being said, if anyone living in Texas, whose House of Representative is a Republican, and you would like to help by sending the petition to your Republican Representative, please contact me immediately at:Lady_enya_1 {{{PLEASE CROSS-POST}}} Check out the new Front Page. www.
