DEADLINE Extended Tues 19th for Kill-S373
DEADLINE Extended for Kill-S373
The DEADLINE for getting your letters opposing S373 to Tom Wolfe has been extended to Wednsday January 20th. Last day to overnight will be Tuesday the 19th. We don't believe the Senate will be back for a vote untill then. We have an extra 10 days to push our numbers up higher. Please take advantage of this opportunity! This is extremely serious. If we do not succeed 1/3 of the Reptile Nation could be destroyed! Thousands will lose jobs. Many businesses will be bankrupted. Individuals could lose their homes. The time to ACT is NOW!!!!
We need an ALL OUT effort right now. It is very simple. Write your letters like we did when we killed HR669. It is the MOST IMPORTANT thing you can do right now. Follow the instructions below:
1. Letters to your Senators- Go to www.Kill-S373.com and follow the instructions. Use the ‘Sample Letter’. Watch the instructional video. There is no substitute for REAL letters. Do it NOW!!!
2. Email your Senators- This is NOT a substitute for REAL letters. Click here we have made it easy for you. EMAIL: Tell the US Senate to Stop the Python Ban! | United States Association of Reptile Keepers |
3. Contact the Media- ‘Pythons, Politics & Death of the American Dream’ campaign. Click on the links below:
• MSNBC- MSNBC- Pythons, Politics & Death of the American Dream | United States Association of Reptile Keepers |
• CNN- CNN- Pythons, Politics & Death of the American Dream | United States Association of Reptile Keepers |
• FOX News- FOX News- Pythons, Politics & Death of the American Dream | United States Association of Reptile Keepers |
The future of the Reptile Nation could be decided by what you as an individual are prepared to do over the next few days. Do not miss this opportunity to make a difference! Our community needs to pull together as never before. Do NOT let this be the final days of the Reptile Industry and Hobby!
Special Message to Industry Leaders: If you make your living in the reptile trade you need to do all of the things listed above that the rest of the Reptile Nation is doing... and more! It is your responsibility to get a meeting with your Senator and make your case. You represent the industry in your state. By making direct contact with your Senators you give them a reason to oppose S373. Jobs and the Economy are important. Make your case. The time is NOW!!!

Re: DEADLINE Extended Tues 19th for Kill-S373
Don't send emails, send actual physical letters! That's the only way they'll see how much people care about this bill not passing.
I sent mine overnight on Saturday, I wish I had known about the extention so I could have saved a bit of money. But really $20 to sent hand written letters to my senators in order to keep my business afloat is well worth it!

Everybody Keep in mind that

2. Email your Senators- This is NOT a substitute for REAL letters.

Now that the deadline has been extended we can send more written & printed out letters for your State's U.S. Senators to Tom Wolfe
Maybe find area Pet shops bring a couple stack of letters in and talk to the Manager
Leave the stacks for people to sign then come back and pick them up and send them out
Making use of this Link:
This page is dedicated to making it easy for you to write your Senators in order to KILL-S373 - Click here
Or made use of this "Non Computer Savvy" Link:
Quick Easy ,CLICK HERE TO SEND TWO LETTERS
CLICK HERE FOR SAMPLE LETTER
Send to:
Tom Wolfe
6246 Lee Hwy
Arlington, VA 22205
So hopefully all of us can make use of this extra time
Also meeting with your Senators staff in person is possibly
the best way of all to get the point across
Plus maybe message your friends on this Forum or other forums
They don't have to be reptile Forums even
Urge these people to help !!
