When directing things at the fence-sitters or supporters of this legislation, I think we really need to direct our focus on the loss of knowledge about herps and how that will affect our ability to create sound management decisions about these populations. Discuss protecting the ability of future generations to enjoy these populations. Keep to the high ground, and don't discuss "my rights" (that sounds selfish). Talk about kids.
For the ones you think are on our side (e.g. rural constituencies) I think we ought to focus on rural concerns, loss of revenue, etc.
At this point, letters to Pete Gallego need to be simple, short, and supportive of his position in opposition to this bill.
And by all means, keep things civil, don't sound like anarchists or tinfoil-hat wearing loonies. No name calling!
