Governor Bill Richardson is squarely in the Animal Rights camp. His "advisors" on animal issues come from New Mexico's largest Animal Rights organization APNM-APV (Animal Protection New Mexico - Animal Protection Voters). APV is the PAC of APNM. Look at the legislation the Governor endorses and who writes that legislation. The first version of the Animal Sheltering Services Act (2004) had provisions for mandatory statewide spay/neuter of ALL pet animals. The provision was hidden in the bill for animal shelters. Fortunately, in 2004 (the first year the legislation was introduced) I was able to work with a senator's staffer and have the mandatory spay/neuter language removed.
Also consider the background of the lady who was appointed by Governor Richardson to head writing the Animal Sheltering Services Act. As I recall, she was the "undercover" PETA member that misrepresented herself to get employment at Huntingdon Labs. At one time her diary was on the internet. She moved from New Jersey to New Mexico. In preparing the Animal Sheltering Services Act she worked with the New Mexico Regulation and Licensing Department (RLD).
The bill was reintroduced in 2005 and 2006. Now there will be another try in 2007. I'm concerned what language may be added to the bill for the upcoming legislative session. The session starts at noon January
16 and ends at noon on March 17.
Governor Richardson's press release is posturing him for the presidential race. Look at each of his 10 points. Without knowing who wrote it, wouldn't any of us suspect the 10 points were an HSUS initiative? Does anyone really believe the Governor came up with those points on his own?
Since the Governor will be a candidate for president, I suggest that his position is of concern to all of us.
