| ![]() I signed it too - they are a long way from the 5,000 signatures needed. I think I was 794 or 795.

| ![]() I signed it and also wrote a letter where permitted. Our society that treats these innocent creatures as chattel is barbaric and disgusts me.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | ![]() I will sign it too. The shelter I volunteer at alerted us to this and asked us to send an email to the Governor of Illinois on this and puppymills. I did and got a response from him yesterday( I know it was not really from him but at least his staff is getting this) Here's the email I got back. We still have a long way to go before they really GET it: Dear Patti, Thank you for contacting my office with your concerns about pet breeders. I always have and always will support the humane treatment of all pets and am committed to working with members of the General Assembly to protect our animal friends. Based on issues that you raised, today my staff worked with Rep. Lisa Dugan to draft and introduce a bill to improve the licensing rules for breeders in Illinois. House Bill 6854sets a higher standard for people seeking to obtain pet breeder licenses from the Illinois Department of Agriculture. It will allow the State to consider certain past criminal convictions when issuing breeder licenses. I have also been working closely with the Illinois Humane Society and am in full support of House Bill 5772, which would create stricter disclosure requirements for all pet store owners in our State. These bills protect our pets and empower consumers with the information they need to make smart decisions about animal ownership. Once again, thank you for sharing your concerns with me about this important issue. Citizen participation is critical to the democratic process in this state and today, your voice was heard. Sincerely, Pat Quinn Governor

| ![]() Count me in! I can't believe how sad it is that these people would even consider giving these poor babies back to these horrible ladies!
