The battle in California continues to heat up. The latest news from Susan Van Luchene follows. If you live in California please help oppose AB 1634 by reading below and contacting your Assembly Member in opposition. Please.

Susan Van Luchene:

Here is the list of Assembly Members that are still undecided. The good news is that several of these have made up their mind to oppose this draconian piece of legislation!! In calling this morning I discovered that Assembly Member Anna Marie Caballero will OPPOSE, Assembly Member Cathleen Galgiani will OPPOSE, Assembly Member Fiona MA is opposed at present (this means we cannot let up on her!!), ad Assembly Member Nicole Parra will OPPOSE!

This means we are having an IMACT and we CAN DEFEAT AB 1634 — Please.
Please, EVERYONE get on the phone and call every one of these Assembly
Members today to let them know You OPPOSE AB1634 as Amended 5-31-07. (new
amendment date, used to be 5-9) to make sure you get the point across you
READ the amendments and STILL oppose this.

My gut tells me a few of the Assembly Members WE STILL NEED TO CONVINCE are
Julia Brownley, Charles Calderon, Mike Davis,, Betty Karnette and Tony
Mendoza — make these your SPECIAL TARGETS!!

Please don’t forget to register you opposition, as well as your thanks for
their opposition, with Assembly Members, Marie Caballero, Cathleen Galgiani,
Fiona Ma, and Nicole Parra
Many thanks!
Susan Van Luchene

There are two organizations that need money to continue the fight against anti breeding: the Concerned Dog Owners of California (see address in Ted Crawford’s email to me below) and PetPac (the political action committee formed to protect the rights of pets and owners through public awareness and education http://www.petpac.net/ )

From my friend and president of the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Club of Southern California:

We are in a critical time this week. If this bill does not get passed
this week it is dead. We believe he is having a hard time finding the
votes to get it passed. Some of us also feel that he would like to get
away from this bill that will likely be the end of his political career.
The overwhelming numbers of CA. residents do not want this bill (80%
oppose to 20% support). One would have to realize that the people that
vote you into office can just as easily vote you out.

As for any donations, please make checks payable to; CDOC (Concerned Dog
Owners of California) you can send to me and I will hand deliver.

Ted Crawford,
446 E. Jefferson Ave.
Pomona, CA 91767

Thank you for all your support and please know that everything we are
doing will be helpful to everyone who may face the same problem.
