Dear Herp Fans,

Massachusetts wildlife is facing a very serious threat. Currently a bill to kill the Mass. Endangered Species Act is in committee. The bill's backers have also begun a propaganda effort on You Tube. This is part of a machine led by a Mr. Pepin (owner of WWLP) from Western Mass to dismantle the Mass Endangered Species Act (MESA) and the Natural Heritage/Endangered Species Program of the MA Division of Fisheries and Wildlife. You can protect our collective natural heritage by doing the following:

1. Go to the video below on You Tube.

2. Be SURE to dislike it (Vote thumbs down) and post a negative comment about the video.

3. Also vote appropriately on all of the comments, including voting down the unfavorable comments.

Mass. Residents Continue:

4. Contact your state senator and reps to let them know that you do NOT support SB 1854.

5. Also be sure to contact Sen Pacheco and Rep Gobi. Pacheco is chair of the Comm. on Ag and the Environment and SB 1854 is currently in his committee. (Word is that Pacheco is not leaning the right way.)

6. Send the same message to Govenor Patrick.

7. Pass this on only to those that you KNOW will do the same.

This is a very serious attack. Do not assume that the good guys will win. Tyranny is what happens when good people do nothing.

VERY Sincerely,

Brian
