"National Wildlife Federation, Audubon, Society, Nature Conservancy, etc.. For these groups support science and science-based policy."

Well, that's was not the case with H.R. 669, the Nonnative Wildlife Invasion Prevention Act. I know at least 2 of those groups (who I USED to support) Were for this bill, and are for for banning ALL imported exotic pets.

Read below -

"The House Subcommittee on Insular Affairs, Oceans and Wildlife today held a hearing on H.R. 669, the Nonnative Wildlife Invasion Prevention Act. Introduced by Subcommittee Chairwoman Madeleine Bordallo (D-Guam), a great friend to animals, the bill would set up a process for evaluating exotic wildlife species to determine whether they should be allowed or prohibited for importation and interstate commerce. The legislation is endorsed by The Humane Society of the United States, Humane Society Legislative Fund, Defenders of Wildlife, National Audubon Society, The Nature Conservancy, Union of Concerned Scientists, and a number of other conservation and animal protection groups."
