LET'S TAKE HB 2833 ALL THE WAY TO A LAW!!!

[Mike]

Everyone, this needs to be filed by a Senator... TODAY!!!

OKAY find your Senators here - http://www.fyi.legis.state.tx.us/

We need everyone to contact their Senator, especially anyone that may have any of the following Senators. 
Kel Seliger - Amarillo and panhandle area
Robert Duncan - Lubbock and South Plains
Robert Nichols - East Texas area
Brian Birdwell - Waco area
Birdwell is a freshman Senator and will not have the workload that the Senior Senators already have.  He is also a hunter.
They need to tell whoever answers the phone that they are a constituent and need to speak to someone about filing a bill.  Then when that person comes on to tell them that they are a constituent at the local level, with a local issue and that you have a bill that needs to be filed in the senate as a companion bill to Rep. White's HB 2833.  That their filing would help with your association and your people with working dogs. We are not worried about it passing right this moment We NEED IT FILED, and don't let them tell you any stories!
If one or more tellyou they will file it, let us know back and we can let the lobbyist contact them to know what has been done so far.

Just called and spoke with Johhny Jones in Senator Frasor office. He asked a lot of questions and took a lot of information. Hope it will help. Anyone within his district wouldnt hurt to call. I explained to him this will benefit ranchers who have working/guard dogs and hunters as well as blood, coon, hog, bird, rescue, retrievers..etc. That seem to get his attention.
