BAD NEWS FOLLOWS GOOD NEWS IN SACRAMENTO,
 
After the stunning 11-0 yes vote on HR 37 (there were two abstentions, and
no votes against) I woke up to the following quote in the San Francisco
Chronicle, "Although no one testified against the resolution, Wilson's
office said the governor opposes legalization of the squirmy cousins of the
weasel."
 
If you live in California, if you wish to visit California, if you someday
may need, or want, to move to California, or, if you simply are tired of the
persecution of the ferret and its owners here in California, you MUST call
the Governor's office at (916) 445-1455 and tell him of your displeasure
with his position, and that he should SUPPORT legalization.
 
I can't believe that we have overcome so many hurdles and now face a problem
with the Governor, but so be it, we are all his constituents.  Please ask
all of your family members, friends, co-workers, veterinarians and vet techs
and pet store folks to call and express their opinion on the Governor's
opinion.  And please do it ASAP.  Make flyers with his telephone number for
vet offices, pet stores and your place of business.  Don't let him be misled
by these corrupted state agencies!
 
And please, arm yourselves with a copy of the Pacific Research Institute
Report.  This report is the best thing for our issue since sliced bread for
the sandwhich market.  Dad purchased 1,000 of these and over half of them
are reserved for lobbying efforts.  The rest are available to you at a cost
of $5.00 per report.  Educate yourself and help Dad recoup his cost.  Please
send checks to me, Jeanne Carley, 410 Mountain Home Road, Woodside, CA
94062.
 
Thanks in advance for your help with the Governor's office.  He really needs
to hear from you!
 
Jeanne Carley
Legislative Director
