If you don't want this on the forums, I understand, but it needs to be seen by more people, so I am sorry if this violates any of the rules in advance....
OK People,
Here we go again, I know alot of you don't keep Burms(obviously in Maine), but BOAS are going to be added to this!!!! Then they will go after all the others once they pass this!! Please do this, I know some of you on my list already have this info, and some of you don't even keep snakes anymore, or never did, but if you know us,you know how this will effect us!!
SO, if you are local and don't feel like printing and mailing letters, we have tons printed out at the tattoo shop. Come on down and sign them and WE will send them all in together!! This has to be done by no later than MONDAY!!!!!! For all you out of our area, please spread the word, and do your part, Ball, Blood, and carpet, and all other snakes breeders, I know you are watching thinking this can't happen to you, but it will if we let them pass this CRAPPY bill!!! DO IT!!!!!!!

S373 aka ‘The Python Ban’ has been amended to include the 9 great constrictors referenced in the recent report released by the US Geological Survey entitled Giant Constrictors: Biological and Management Profiles and an Establishment Risk Assessment for Nine Large Species of Pythons, Anacondas, and the Boa Constrictor. If passed as written S373 would add all 9 snakes to the Injurious Wildlife list of the Lacey Act making it a felony to engage in the import, export and interstate transport of any of these animals.
This possibility is unacceptable to USARK and the Reptile Nation. We are encouraging everyone with an interest in S373 to click on www.Kill-S373.com and participate in the USARK Kill S373 Letter Campaign. There you will find step by step instructions, a sample letter, contact information and even an instructional video to help you write your US Senators an effective letter opposing S373. We have learned that written letters are one of the most effective ways to lobby Congress. Sending an email is NOT enough! Write your letters. Get your friends and family involved writing letters too.
USARK spearheaded a similar letter writing campaign last spring. The Reptile Nation generated 50,000 letters opposing HR669. The bill was crushed. Time to do it again! Spread the web address www.Kill-S373.com all over the internet. Put it on your facebook page. Put it on your MySpace page. Twitter it. Post it on every forum or social networking site that you frequent. Email it to everyone you know! www.Kill-S373.com will take you straight to the resources you need to do your letters. We have made it as easy as it can possibly be, but it will require some effort. January 12th is our deadline. We don’t have much time. Do it today!
If you are an Industry Leader You Must Make an APPOINTMENT to MEET With Your Senators!! If you care about your business you will do this!!!
