Hello everyone, I just got the news from that by an 11-1 vote (we needed 11 so for now have just squeeked out, but we might get more votes in favor) we have passed the Appropriations Committee and are now headed to the Assembly floor! THE FERRET BILL LIVES!* *Please help us get the Sierra Club and the Audubon Society to change their position on this bill. The Senate will be tough enough without their opposition. Visit our website at: http://www.ccnet.com/~beisners/gsfs/lobby.html for more information and please write to both the State and National offices of each. I think folks from out of state can help here, so please, everyone help out. Here are the people to write to: Audubon Society/California State Director Audubon, California 555 Audubon Place Sacramento, CA 95814 Audubon Society/National John Flicker, President National Audubon Society 700 Broadway New York, NY 10003 Sierra Club/California William J.
