From the ASPCA home site: The Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act (AETA) has already been passed in the Senate, and a vote in the House is expected very soon. It is critical that you contact your representative immediately H.R. 4239, the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act (AETA), is a bill that could make it a crime punishable by imprisonment to cause any business classified as an " animal enterprise " to suffer a loss of profit—even if the company's financial decline is the result of legal activities, such as peaceful protests, consumer boycotts or media campaigns. The term “animal enterprise†would include manufacturers, distributors and sellers of animals or animal products, research facilities, pet stores, breeders, zoos, rodeos, circuses, and animal shelters and the like. There is a brief form on the site for you to fill out to save time. https://secure2.convio.net/aspca/site/Advocacy?cmd=display & page=UserAction & i d=2037 Urge your representative to oppose the Animal Enterprise Terrorist Act.
