Dear ferret fans, Californians for Ferret Legalization has printed over 4,000 Wanted posters so far, plus thousands of Ferret Fact Sheets, and now, over 1,000 Legislative Alerts regarding the Sierra Club/Audubon opposition. We've advised ferret enthusiasts via first class mail of the fact that their representative would determine the outcome of the vote in the Water, Parks and Wildlife Committee, as well as the Appropriations Committee, and they should write or phone immediately to have their position heard. Those mailings alone totaled almost 900 individuals. We also receive between 7-15 inquiries each week about the legislation in California and mail information packets to all Californians that contact us (due to the volume of calls and letters, I 've had to forgo requests for school project information). As you might imagine, this is expensive and we need your help if we are to be able to continue. So far we've been successful with two legislative committee hearings going in our favor. Please help us continue this trend. The Senate will be tougher, there's no question about that and we want to reach every Californains that cares about this issue with the information he or she needs to become involved. Sadly, most of them are not on the internet, otherwise this would not be as expensive as it is turning out to be. Please consider a donation to Californians for Ferret Legalization as we head to the Assembly floor and then hopefully on to the Senate. Checks should be made out to: Californians for Ferret Legalization 410 Mountain Home Road Woodside, CA 94062 A really big thank you to all who have donated in the past. We couldn't reach the people we are reaching without your help. Sincerely, Jeanne Carley Californians for Ferret Legalization 410 Mountain Home Road Woodside, CA 94062 (415) 851-3750 <[log in to unmask]> http://www.ccnet.com/~beisners/gsfs/lobby.html CALIFORNIANS, YOU CAN FIND OUT YOUR ASSEMBLYMEMBER AND STATE SENATOR BY VISITING THIS SITE!!
