ATTENTION MARYLAND RESIDENTS:
A hearing in the Senate Environmental Committee for House Bill 426 is
scheduled for April 2nd.  Please contact Senator Clarence Blount, Chairman
of the committee, to express support for the bill.  Write to:
             Senator Clarence Blount
             James Lowe Office Building
             Annapolis, Maryland 21401
 
You can find out his phone number by calling the Maryland State Legislative
Services at 301-858-3810 or 410-841-3810. Again, the purpose of the bill is
to recognize ferrets as domestic animals, require rabies vaccinations, and
establish a quarantine period.  The bill came up for a vote in the House of
Delegates on March 20th and passed 119 to 13 (slight correction from my
previous post).
