Action Alert!

Anti-Dissection Choice Lobbyist Up to No Good Again

Massachusetts Dissection Choice Bill H. 1252 has been stalled from an otherwise quick passage through the House by Representative Patricia Haddad, who is acting under the influence of the Massachusetts Teachers Association (MTA). The MTA has convinced Haddad to attempt to add a "local option" to H. 1252, leaving it up to local school districts to decide whether or not to allow students the choice of humane dissection alternatives - thus gutting the bill.

The bill has enormous legislative support , and we cannot let the MTA's attempt to derail H. 1252 succeed.

IF YOU CARE ABOUT ANIMALS AND COMPASSIONATE STUDENTS PLEASE TAKE ONE MINUTE to contact Rep. Haddad NOW and ask her to not support MTA's "local option" language but rather vote to SUPPORT Rep. Kafka's Dissection Choice bill as is.

WE COUNTED ON EACH OF YOU IN THE PAST AND SUCCEEDED IN BACKING OFF OPPOSITION - PLEASE LET'S DO IT AGAIN!!!!
