Thank Senator Latimer for Introducing Bill S6644 - Severely Limit killing and removal of wild geese and turkeys

From: Animal Defenders of Westchester (ADOW)
May 9, 2014

Senator Latimer has introduced the following legislation: S6644/A08934 - 'Severely Limit killing and removal of wild geese and turkeys'

Requires the NYS DEC to hold a Public Hearing in a community where an action to remove Canada Geese or Turkeys is contemplated. It would limit the number of permits the DEC may give out, mandate that humane alternatives be provided, and prevent carcasses from such a removal from being turned over to food pantries for human consumption.' (More info on website)

Please thank Senator Latimer for introducing this dynamic, comprehensive bill. It will go a long way toward stopping the rampant USDA slaughters in NYS by recognizing our rights as citizens and taxpayers to be notified in advance of 'culls' and be permitted to have public meetings and input into this unnecessary, cruel use of our tax dollars.

You are all lobbyists right now; a lobbyist is 'a person who tries to influence legislation on behalf of a special interest'.

Many thanks as always for speaking out for the innocents and supporting this important legislation.
