Please Contact the House Agricultural Committee Today!
The House Agricultural Committee will soon vote on House Bill 733, a bill actively supported by the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) and intended to put dog breeders and kennel owners out of business.
HSUS says it is only trying to regulate massive, overcrowded “puppy mills,” but this is part of the same old lie. The fact is that they want to ban all hunting in
Remember that HSUS’ President, Wayne Pacelle, told the Associated Press, “If we could shut down all sport hunting in a moment, we would.” HSUS spends $120 million a year to lobby and litigate against hunters and animal owners. Pacelle understands that an outright hunting ban is not realistic today so his group practices incrementalism. He will take it piece by piece and he has said so publicly.
In other states, HSUS advocates for mandatory spay and neuter laws. These require all dogs older than six months to be spayed or neutered unless the dog owner is fortunate and wealthy enough to obtain an annual “may issue” intact license from a local government official. This legislation violates basic principles of private property rights and keeps hunting dog owners from doing what they’ve done for generations – pass along quality puppies to their friends and hunting partners while at the same time helping to recoup costs of care and training. If HB 733 is enacted, rest assured HSUS will be back to
HSUS radicals must be stopped in
