bonniegrrlSay NO to Calif. Pet Vet Tax Bill
Hello everyone:
We are sending this to our California animal lovers and asking you all to read the following and then make a quick call to Sacramento.
It's no secret that California is in dire need of money, but the governor is proposing that pets be considered 'luxuries' and therefore a 9% to 10% tax should be levied on services rendered by vets. While most of us can afford such a tax, others will be pushed beyond their ability to pay, resulting in the abandonment of many pets.
Please protest this tax by calling Sacramento. The number is to an automated survey at the governor's office. The call is not free, but it It will take less than a minute and will cost very little.
Dial: 916-445-2841
The numbers to press in response to the questions are: 1 - 5 - 1 - 2 (i.e., 1 = for English; 5 = to transfer to veterinary tax proposal; 1 = to choose to comment on the veterinary tax proposal; and 2 = to oppose the tax.
Take a moment and take action NOW. Please tell your friends and ask them to do the same.
