To sum it up:
1. We need copies of your letters, emails, etc., that you send to the Committee members and your representatives

3. Please make every effort to attend the Public Hearing - tell everyone you know that is a reptile enthusiast.

There is always strength in numbers and if possible, please attend the Public Hearing. Working together, we can help defeat HB 1309.

Thanks so much ...
