Does anyone know what might be the time frame for a committee vote/general vote on this legislation? How much time to we have to get going with petitions? I am very impressed with the response of the Osprey community to the call for action on this. Norm & Rick Dolesh, great work getting together a formal MOS statement in such a short time. Barry, Fred, Leslie, Gail, Ellen, George (have I forgotten someone?) - thanks for taking time to testify at the hearings. (Leslie, you are such a good chapter president!) And thanks also to everyone who wrote to their legislators. As Norm pointed out, such a quick response would have been impossible without Osprey to spread the word. I am so glad that I noticed the newspaper article on the hunting legislation. The article was buried in the sports section - my husband always teases me for reading the sports (we have NO interest in team-type sports) but hey - this time, it paid off.
