Urgent Call to Action for Dusty's Law
Dear friends,
I thought this important.
>From the Seeing Eye Family,
There's an important bill being heard in the New Jersey Assembly Law & 
Public Safety Committee this Thursday, December 12th. Dusty's Law 
(S1907/A4105) will help protect guide dogs, puppies and their handlers, 
instructors and puppy raisers from attacks and interference by aggressive 
dogs. This measure has already passed the NJ Senate unanimously with 
bi-partisan support, and if we can get it through the Assembly, Governor 
Christie could sign it into law by January. To read the language for A4105 
visit: http://www.njleg.state.nj.us/2012/Bills/A4500/4105_I1.HTM
Please take a moment to email the members of the committee, and urge them to 
support the bill. Below are the emails of the committee members who are not 
already sponsoring the bill and sample text that you may use if you wish. We 
need everyone's help to move Dusty's Law forward. Please help in our quest 
to better protect guide dogs and their handlers. For more information, visit 
SeeingEye.org/protect or email advocacy at seeingeye.org.
Thank you,
