AETA UPDATE - CONTACT YOUR SENATOR TODAY TO PUT A HOLD ON THE BILL

LATE BREAKING NEWS

ANIMAL ENTERPRISE TERRORISM ACT

S 3880

HR 4239

As of this morning, the Senate is slated to pass AETA , then the House

will pass AETA, then off to the President. AETA is apparently not

going to be attached to the Homeland Security Appropriations Bill.

CALL YOUR SENATOR TO PUT A HOLD ON THE BILL. THIS WOULD STOP THE VOTE

TODAY!

This would delay the passage of the bill since it won't be able to

proceed by unanimous consent of the Senate. The Senate would then have

to get 60 votes to override hold, and that is unlikely to happen.

TALKING POINTS:

1. The constituencies that would be most affected by this bill have

not been heard from.

2. There has been no debate or discussion on the Senate floor.

3. This is a dangerous precedent that will single out certain

constituencies for penalties.

4. You don't condone illegal activities, but this bill is much more

broad sweeping.

Truly man is the king of beasts, for his brutality exceeds theirs. We live by the death of others: we are burial places! I have from an early age abjured the use of meat, and the time will come when men such as I will look on the murder of animals as they now look on the murder of men.

~ Leonardo da Vinci (Renaissance painter, architect, engineer, mathematician and philosopher, 1452 - 1519)
