Remember, even if you can't swing $30 right now, make sure you SEND SOMETHING. Everything is riding on this election! We must beat Panter and Karcher!!! The antis are throwing everything into this election and we mustn't let them have their way. There are roughly a mere 2500 members of the NJ Animal Rights Alliance across NJ, but they are taking this election VERY seriously and they have lots of money!!

Let them know you want straight answer - they will either vote AGAINST the bills (they are on the side of anglers, hunters, trappers) or they will vote for the bills (they are with the antis.)
Let them know you want their answer in WRITING. Let them know you will not vote for anyone that will vote for bills A-3275 and S-2041.

Pro-Animal Groups Push Agenda on Capitol Hill
Washington (CNSNews.com) - A woman with short hair and glasses stands on a chair in a small meeting room on the first floor of the Rayburn House Office Building on Capitol Hill. She's reading off the names of states and senators, directing dozens of people to meetings starting at 11 AM.
When she's through, most people listening leave to start their lobbying efforts. The rest converge on a table of food provided by the natural and organic grocery store Whole Foods.
Monday was the last day of the annual Taking Action for Animals Conference. After a weekend featuring speakers and group gatherings, this day is designated for lobbying.
"It's a very pragmatic and mainstream effort to encourage change in society to protect animals," said Nancy Perry, vice president of governmental affairs for the animal protection group, the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS).

She'll have to contact the Monmouth County SPCA, which takes injured birds, Janine Motta of the New Jersey Animal Rights Alliance tells her. "But they won't come get him; you'll have to take him there yourself," she says.
The woman questions the necessity of having to bring the dove to the Eatontown-based animal shelter, but Motta urges her to do so. "If he's an adult, any cut will attract maggots and flies and spell death for him," she says firmly.
The woman concurs and hangs up.

A northern New Jersey state senator introduced a bill last month making the gift a criminal offense.
“The margin between a child's stupid mistake and a tragic ending is far too thin,” said state Sen. Nicholas Scutari, D-Union, Middlesex, Somerset.

BILLS A3275/S2041 - JCAA Newsletter
The animal rights activists (more
appropriately called the anti-fishing/anti-hunting
activists) have found friends in Assemblyman
Panter and Assemblywoman
Greenstein and Senator
Karcher. They
are responsible for introducing A3275 and S2041.
These bills would politicize the Fish and Game
Council that was established in the early
1940’s to manage the hunting and fishing
interests in New Jersey.
The reason it is called the Fish and Game Council is
because its focus was limited to regulating fishing
and hunting seasons and rules. The members of the
Fish and Game Council are hunters, anglers and the
farmers whose livelihood is impacted by hunting and
fishing. It is important to keep in mind that
managing wildlife in New Jersey has a tremendous
impact on agriculture and every citizen who is fed by
JERSEY FRESH farmers. The decisions are based on the
information received from scientists and the reports
from the Division of Fish and Wildlife. When the
black bear population dropped drastically in the
70’s, it was the Fish and Game Council that

They did not consider opening the hunt again until
the population of black bears grew so large that many
