Before the Feds pass such laws they have to allow industry, the public, and interest groups a chance to challenge proposed changes to the Code of Federal Regulations. That is the purpose of this public notice in the Federal Register.

Clearly this law will do much more harm than good and will only hurt an already weak economy. We simply have to ban together and challenge this foolish proposal. Our hobby is a multi billion dollar industry. The majority of all my sales go right back out in the form of expenses and taxes. I am sure FedEx, UPS and Delta would feel this ban. Not to mention all the other businesses that produce the tubs, cages, shipping supplies, rodent chow, rodents... the list goes on and on. Everyone needs to write!

In the future It would be much more effective to have a Political Action Committee such as the NRA to protect our freedoms and the economic well being of so many people who would be impacted by such a ban. We really need to get serious about such a group and everyone needs to join! Or it's just a matter of time before our hobby will be an illegal one.
