| California Veterinarian Tax Proposal CALL!! Subject: FW: Quick response to Veterinarian Tax Proposal/ CA. Please call the Governor's office and vote to oppose this tax! It is all automated and takes only a few seconds to do - I just did. Call (916) 445-2841, then press 1 - 5 - 1 - 2 to oppose. CA wants to legislate a 9% tax on all veterinary services, including meds. This is really reprehensible at a time when so much is being done to heighten awareness regarding caring for animals. Veterinarians, whose training and licensing is as rigorous as that of MDs will now have their care taxed as though they were dispensing canned goods. And the cost of surgeries, neutering, etc. is high-an additional 9% will discourage many from giving their pet care. Please call the governors's office and make it known that balancing the budget at the expense of our pets' health is not acceptable!!! It only takes about 20 seconds because it's all automated. Call 916-445-2841. Press 1 for English. Press 5 for the Hot Issues. It will ask you to press 1 if you're calling about the veterinary tax proposal, so press 1. Then press 2 to oppose the tax. Please forward to others. Thanks.

| I called, should we continue to call? Meaning, do they know if we oppose or agree more than once? |
