After just 2 days of calls, (last Thurs & Fri) the feedback we are getting is that they are getting a LOT of calls. Let's keep up the pressure on N.C. as an example of a state which is revising its killing protocols but decided to still not ban gassing. Please continue to call N.C. Gov. Easley at 919-733-4240 and 919-733-5811, Agriculture Commissioner Steve Troxler at 919-733-7125, and Chamber of Commerce Pres Lew Ebert at 919-836-1407 and tell them that you will boycott N.C. goods and will spread the word about the gassing practices of N.C. Please send us a brief email of what each office says to you. WE NEED YOUR FEEDBACK TO ASSESS HOW THEY ARE REACTING.

Now comes the second step in the “End the Gassing of Pets” campaign.

Together we could get "End Gassing of Pets" on the presidential campaign policy platforms.

Obama's Democratic Campaign is holding party platform recommendation meetings July 19-27 IN EVERY COMMUNITY IN THE COUNTRY. Registration to attend these small 5-10 person meetings is FREE and ENORMOUS INFLUENCE CAN BE OBTAINED ON WHAT GETS INCLUDED IN THE OFFICIAL PARTY PLATFORM BY ATTENDING THE ONE IN YOUR COMMUNITY.

ABOUT COMPANION ANIMAL NETWORK ( & quot;CAN & quot;)Garo Alexanian founded C.A.N. with the goal of ending the 100 year old policy of killing unwanted and lost dogs and cats in NY City. With C.A.N. & #39;s political lobbying, litigation, and authoring of legislation which was introduced in both the State Assembly and State Senate, and its passage through committee, N.Y. City finally agreed to try to switch to & quot;no-kill & quot; animal control. The NY City Council acknowledged his successful efforts in Resolution 982. Since then New York has received over $20 million in grants as a result. Subsequently, Garo Alexanian served as Senior Assistant to former NY City Deputy Mayor Herb Rickman, who was at the time a senior advisor to mayoral candidate Rudy Giuliani. He also served as an informal advisor on animal

control to Mayor Rudy Giuliani during his first term. Additional information at www.CompanionAnimal NetworkTV. org.
