OPPOSE SB 1221 – Ban on Dogs For Hunting Bear and Bobcat
IMPORTANT CRPA MEMBER ALERT
OPPOSE SB 1221 – BAN ON DOGS FOR HUNTING BEAR AND BOBCAT SB 1221 is co-authored by Senator Ted Lieu, of Torrance, and Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg and is sponsored by the Humane Society of the United States. Although SB 1221 does not impact hunters who use dogs for bird hunting or other mammal hunting, it should be of great concern to all hunters. This bill is radical, anti-hunting legislation. There is no science to support SB 1221. And, make no mistake this is the first step in their attempt to ban the use of dogs for any hunting in California. We need to stop this bill now! SB 1221 is headed to the Senate floor and will be up for a vote as early as the week of May 14. Please contact your Senator to voice your opposition to SB 1221.
