Subject: Legislative Alert- HR  669

AFA  Legislative Alert- ACTION Needed  NOW! 
 
Important  Announcement - AFA Opposes  HR669
 
We need your help  - whether you own an "exotic" animal or any other  
animal. HR 669 is set for hearing on 4/23/09. We all  need to work together to 
kill HR 669  now.
 
This Bill is  backed by the HSUS, Sierra Club, Defenders of  Wildlife, and 
many many other animal rights groups.  The Bill has a solid purpose, and 
seeks to do  something positive, but it also includes legislative  jargon that 
will reduce or eliminate the import,  keeping, and sales of exotic animals 
and birds within  the This Bill is . It must be  STOPPED NOW!
 

WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP KILL HR  669

Contact your  Representatives NOW

1. You can use NAIA's  Capwiz tool to send an automatic email or fax  to
each of the Representatives who will hear this  bill to ask them to KILL HR
669. Here's the link to  send your email using Capwiz:

_www.capwiz.com/www.capwiz_ (http://www.capwiz.com/naiatrust/) 

2.  PIJAC has provided us with a _PDF  flyer_ 
(http://www.afabirds.org/HR669.shtml)  which explains to pet owners
how HR 669  will hurt all of us and our animals. The _PIJAC  PDF flyer_ 
(http://www.afabirds.org/pdf/HR669_PIJAC_Flyer.pdf)  provides you with contact 
information -  use it. Please contact your own Representatives NOW,  and 
tell them to KILL HR 669. Be polite and  respectful, but be clear and
firm in your  opposition to this bill. Be brief, and tell them a few  
reasons why you think it is a bad bill. Short and to  the point works best.
If you have time, you can  also contact all of the other Representatives
in  your State.

Write to your Representative using  their contact pages on their websites.  
Unfortunately, it is sometimes hard for us to  contact some of our
Representatives - emails don't  often go through, letters aren't read, and  
we
sometimes have to write individually to our  Representatives using the
contact pages they put up  on their websites. PIJAC has done the work to
give  us links where needed for these contact pages for  these websites so
that we can make those contacts  (_see  the attached PIJAC PDF flyer_ 
(http://www.afabirds.org/pdf/HR669_PIJAC_Flyer.pdf) ), and NAIA
is  making "Capwiz" available for the one-shot contact -  go to the Capwiz
webpage at _www.capwiz.com/www.capwiz_ (http://www.capwiz.com/naiatrust/)   


Be sure to contact the local office  of your own Representative by phone, 
and
if you  can, make a personal visit. Our congressional  representatives are
now on recess, and will return  to their work at the Capitol next week. 
Let your  Representatives' local offices know NOW that you want  them to 
KILL
HR 669. If the local staff hear from  enough constituents that they want a
bill killed,  they will let their Representatives know that their  
constituents hate this bill.
