Dear LOHVers,
Act now to prohibit pet stores from selling puppies, kittens and bunnies
from breeding mills in pet stores. It is now sitting in the Assembly Rules
Committee. The Chair of the Assembly Rules Committee is Speaker Carl E.
Heastie. Please contact him today and ask him to: Report the PET STORE BILL
(A04283) out of Rules and on to the floor for a House vote. You can convey
the following message to him: This legislation will prohibit pet stores from
selling puppies, kittens and bunnies from breeding mills. Pet stores are
free to and are encouraged to utilize their space to showcase animals for
adoption from reputable humane societies. This legislation will not cause
financial hardship for pet stores that primarily get income from the sale of
pet food and pet supplies. This legislation will help shut down the Breeding
Mill Pipeline in New York State.
We must work quickly! The New York State Legislature’s final day of session
is Thursday June 10th. Please don’t let the animals down!
Call and email Assembly Speaker Carl E. Heastie today
(518) 455-3791 Albany Office
(718) 654-6539 Bronx District Office
