Guest guest Posted November 13, 2006 Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 Action Alert -- House Vote today on anti-activist bill! This is your ONLY chance to defeat the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act (HR 4239, S3880)! The lame duck Congress isn't wasting any time: In a late night move on Friday, the Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act was added to the House Suspension Calendar for today! This underhanded fast-track maneuver, like the one in the Senate, means that AETA will not have any debate – only an up/down vote.
